About

Lynnee Jacks

 

As a lover of travel, I know first hand the importance of telling authentic stories that build resilience for the places we love. 

​

In 2020, I moved to Iceland to pursue a master’s degree in regional development, where I dove deep into the threads of community and stakeholder engagement, bringing a systematic approach to the way I approach the needs and potential impact of my clients. It was there that I co-founded the Westfjords Way Challenge–an ultra-endurance cycling race that challenged the way we do adventure travel, by bridging the event with elements of regional and community development, and curating an experience of cultural exchange. ​​​

​

When I returned to the US, I took my experience in coastal tourism to the Oregon Coast, where I currently craft stewardship campaigns, and communicate the complex work of an organization that is tackling everything from inspiration marketing, to transportation issues, to accessible travel, to local seafood infrastructure.
