Sarah Lamagna is an ecologist-turned-writer and a mom to an almost 4-year-old. She was born and raised a New Englander and spent countless days out on the trails of the northeast. Whether it's on the trails of the Green Mountains in Vermont, the high summits of the White Mountains in New Hampshire, or the coastal cliffs of Maine, Sarah is eager to show her son all of it. Sarah's previous writing experience includes bylines in the Denver Post, REI Co-op Journal, 5280 Magazine, and Territory Supply. She is the writer coordinating the snowshoe section for REI Co-op Journal (aka the snowshoe expert for REI). She's also been featured on NPR's The Takeaway discussing wildfires and climate change. As a former ecologist, she has a unique perspective when discussing science-related issues in the outdoors. She is a fulltime freelance writer, and also volunteers as the Sustainability Expert for WildKind Inc.

, a nationwide organization dedicated to getting families outside. She currently resides in Barrington, New Hampshire.
