A traveler, a partner and a Gatewood….
my values and dreams are what guide my life, my heritage is what informs it.
It’s important to take pride in where we come from, and a family name can be a huge reminder of that.
Six generations back, my “Grandma Gatewood” was the both the first female and the oldest individual to hike the Appalachian Trail. She had a love for the beauty of the region and is a strong and true symbol of grit and determination - a great foreshadowing of my absolute adoration of mother nature, hiking and strong and gritty women.
