About me
Raised by the Bow River and the surrounding summits within Treaty 7 territory, Heidi is deeply committed to educating on behalf of this place that shaped her. As the Environmental Educator for the Future Leaders program, Heidi both coordinates and delivers K-12 curriculum-connected programs throughout the Bow Corridor. Heidi completed a BA in Interdisciplinary Studies focusing on communicating early childhood development outdoors and a MA in Environmental Education and Communication from Royal Roads University with a focus on supporting teacher-wellbeing with nature responsive practices. She is a federal research grant recipient (SSHRC). She left an Olympic career as a cross-country ski racer in 2018, but still makes time for snow and dirt trails whenever possible. She is the youngest of four children in a Swiss-Canadian family and recently a new mother.
