Jasmin’s passion for the outdoors, desire to connect with new cultures, and motivation to protect our planet have led her to over forty states and twenty-five countries. She grew up outside of New York City in Upper Saddle River, New Jersey, and started working in experiential education as a kayaking leader with JHU Outdoor Pursuits. Her experiences studying abroad in Denmark, Costa Rica, and Nepal inspired her to take a Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship in Argentina after graduate school. Since then she’s been working as an educator leading environment and conservation-focused trips in the U.S. and Latin America for organizations such as Rustic Pathways, Ecology Project International, Visions Service Adventures, and NatureBridge.
