Writer and editor Colleen Stinchcombe spent three years as a staff editor before leaving to spend a summer backpacking 1,000 miles along the Pacific Crest and Oregon Coast trails. Afterward, she turned her sights to adventure, travel, environment, and wellness writing. She’s contributed to Outside, REI, GQ, The Seattle Times, SELF, Brit + Co, Shape, Woman’s Day, and Business Insider, among others.

Based in the Seattle, WA area, her domestic travels have taken her from the desert mountains of California to the Badlands of North Dakota. Internationally she’s traveled to Seven Mile Beach in Jamaica and the Maya de Riviera of Mexico, as well as Vietnam, Cambodia, Wales, England, Italy, France, Germany, Denmark, Norway, and Canada. She’s found her way by foot, bike, bus, car, train, ship, and plane with everything from a roller bag to a daypack.

In addition to her editorial work, Colleen has used her expertise with corporate clients copywriting, blogging, crafting editorial calendars and newsletters, and plotting content strategy.
