ALLISON MARTIN is an outside-the-box planner and researcher often beginning conversations with “I read this really great article that said…” She is driven by the need to learn new ways to do things and loves to do the hard work (and make all the mistakes) so you don’t have to. Allie was born and raised a small-town farm girl, and now lives in the Northern Canadian Wilderness with her husband, daughter, husky pup, and mountains of outdoor gear.
