Natalie is from Charlotte, North Carolina and is a student at Appalachian State University. This is her first year at Cascades and she is most looking forward to what Idaho has to offer this summer! She has been kayaking and rafting for 11 years and guiding for 1 year. She is an avid ski and snowboarder and loves spending her winters on the slopes of the three nearby resorts with her friends. Natalie loves being outdoors and playing with her friends on the river or in the woods. When the sun is out Natalie is ready to play. In another life, Natalie would be a lizard that you could find sun bathing on a good rock by the river.
