Kaitlin Kirby grew up in Seattle, lived in Asia for 10 years, and now calls Leavenworth, Washington, home, where she’s currently training to be a firefighter. Outside of work, Kaitlin is a bold rock climber (we’ve witnessed her take some big whips) and mountain biker (evidenced by many scars), but her heart belongs to any outdoor adventure with her pup—whether it’s backpacking, backcountry skiing, or paddleboarding. Kaitlin is certified as an AMGA Single Pitch Instructor and PADI Rescue Diver.
