While Jen hails from the coastlines of British Columbia, she finds herself at home anywhere on the water. From childhood summers spent on her family’s little boat to learning to scuba dive at the tender age of twelve and continuing to dive around the world, she’s found that any day with salty spray in your face is bound to be a good one.
Jen has been guiding expedition sea kayaking and overnight Zodiac tours for eight years. Prior to that, she worked in hospitality at various wilderness adventure lodges around BC, while spending months traveling, diving, and volunteering in as many beautiful places as she could find. She has a deep love for everything ocean-related and can spend hours talking about cool places to visit, fun whale facts, ranking the best sharks, and generally reveling in all aspects of the natural world, big and small.
Jen has a degree in creative writing and a diploma in adventure studies, and in her opinion there’s no better way to merge those two passions than by meeting interesting, curious people from all around the world and experiencing together some of the greatest sights and thrills nature has to offer. If you’re looking for someone to tell you fun stories, get excited with, and potentially choke back a few emotional tears while watching whales in a glittering sea, Jen’s your girl.
