I’m Caitlin, an educator, writer, and mom of one. I grew up in a military family but have called Colorado home for the past 16 years. I currently live in Denver with my husband, our 7-year-old son Dan, and our two cats. I’m a journalism major turned elementary teacher with a passion for play-based learning and outdoor education. My son is my favorite adventure buddy, and we are always discovering new playgrounds, visiting museums, trying out local restaurants, and getting out into nature together. Motherhood has completely changed the way I see the world and deepened my appreciation for community, family connection, and everyday adventures. I’m also a proud University of Colorado alum (Sko Buffs!), and in my spare time I enjoy running, reading, and going to concerts.
