Teagan was born and raised in a small town outside of Ottawa on the traditional, unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinaabeg. She grew up learning to respect and love surrounding natural areas, and this lead her to pursue a degree in Environmental Studies at Carleton University. Since graduation, she has been working in the environmental non-profit sector focused on creating change from the ground up. On days away from the office, you will find her spending time with family and friends, enjoying outdoor activities and trying to get outside no matter the weather.
