Receive Text UpdatesFrankie loves how she is energized when she is out in nature. Being inside with no exercise can make her feel lazy, bored and tired. She also loves how the natural world can feel like a friend, so she never feels lonely when she’s exploring outside. Frankie is constantly trying to incorporate items from the natural world into her everyday life. She has always sensed that there’s a bigger world around her and this helps her to care for the people and things around her.
Frankie’s favorite animal is a cat. While traveling through Morocco this spring, Frankie rescued a 1 week old kitten from the center of a busy highway. Her mission was to become the best cat mother she could, to help it survive through its most fragile time in life. Frankie put the kitten’s needs before her own, constantly thinking of its life ahead of her own. The sweetness & playfulness of cats is what draws her to them. She also appreciates that cat love is earned through trust and connection
This is a tough one. Growing up in the Rockies of Colorado means outdoor mountain sports has always been a big part of her life. Aside from mountain biking, white-water rafting, alpine and xc skiing, and surfing, hiking and camping is probably Frankie’s fave thing to do outside. She has hiked a 14er in Colorado, to the Everest Base Camp in Nepal, and done several multi-day backpacks around the world.
