Learn moreBraelynn loves discovering new places while hiking and learning outdoors. Her favorite “classroom” was two weeks of mountain camping. She thrives in nature, has a vivid imagination, and is passionate about caring for the earth.
Braelynn adores African bush lions for their strength and beauty, but also loves spotting elk, mule deer, and antelope while camping. She’s often the first to see them and feels connected to animals both near and far.
Camping is Braelynn’s favorite—she loves setting up tents, building fires, and being outside in every season. She’s completed outdoor skills classes and even helped lead the setup on a Utah camping trip. Nature is her playground and classroom.
