Welcome Teen Treks’ Bike Trip Leader, Max!
Hey everyone! I’m Max from Westborough, Massachusetts. I can’t wait to get out of the classroom and on the road with you this summer. Being stuck watching the clock in class reminds me why I love the wind on my face and the sun on my back while biking so much. After being a trekker myself, I led my first trip 2 years ago and I’m excited to do it again this summer. Leading for the first time sparked my love for adventure, which has taken me all over. From backpacking in Joshua Tree, to outdoor skating in Upstate New York, to even rock climbing vertical pitches in New Hampshire. I truly love anything that has to do with the outdoors.
Besides the outdoors, I am also a massive nerd. Being a member of the board game club, video game club, and Magic: The Gathering club at my school. I find myself trying to incorporate all my hobbies into one and bring cards to play anytime I’m biking or backpacking. Also, I try to incorporate games into my internship as much as possible. I intern at my local elementary and high school as part of my major in Education. My favorite part of my internships is to connect and just talk to teens and kids instead of just teaching them in the classroom. I look forward to meeting and connecting with you on our bikes this summer.
