Fun Facts
Courtney came to Seattle recently from Tennessee by way of a few years of graduate school in Oregon, and she enjoys exploring parks and neighborhoods around the city. She learned to ski thanks to the water resources club at Oregon State University, and she finds it to be a whole new way to appreciate the hydrology of the Pacific Northwest. When Seattle’s rainy weather outweighs her desire to be outdoors, she reads science fiction and works on expanding her five-chord guitar repertoire.
