About Jackie Dupont
Jackie is a freelance writer based in South Lake Tahoe, California. Raised in Oregon on the banks of the Willamette, she grew up turning over river rocks in search of crawdads, peddling summer days away on local bike paths, and rafting the McKenzie River with her rowdy friends. Between stints at the University of Oregon, Jackie worked seasonally in Glacier, Zion, Olympic, Grand Teton, and Sequoia National Parks. She celebrated the closing of each work contract with grand solo adventures to destinations like Thailand, Costa Rica, and Patagonia. Currently, you can find her slinging blog posts by day and bar drinks by night. When she's off the clock, she mostly passes her time practicing yoga, treading trail with her two dogs, or posted up on the shores of Lake Tahoe, face buried in her latest read.
