MEET BRIEANN

Brieann is a fourth generation Californian that learned her love of the Sierra and wild places from her parents and grandparents before her. As a kid, Brieann loved all things that involved nature and movement and was backpacking the sierras, waterskiing the reservoirs and skiing the Sierra by the age of 5. This time of growth in the Sierra, and freedom of recreation, gave her a deep love and reverence for the natural world.

After pushing the boundaries of her body and experiencing multiple serious injuries, Brieann turned toward Eastern medicine and natural supportive therapies to achieve healing. Following this path, Brieann studied Massage Therapy at the Touch Therapy Institute in Los Angeles, CA. She became a Certified Massage Therapist in 1998,and has enjoyed 25 years of helping others find holistic health and balance in their lives. Supporting others on their nature and wellness journey holds a special place in Brieann’s heart and gives her hope for health and humanity in the future.

Currently, Brieann lives with her husband and two children on their off the grid, solar powered sustainable homestead in Mariposa, and passionately advocates for all things free and wild.
