Mountain Careers to Reach College Students!

Who will be in the next set of mountain town professionals and leaders? At Mountain Careers we want to make sure we are reaching the younger generation who are graduating college and figuring out their next steps in life and grow our workforce. No need to grind it out in the ‘big city’ if you know your heart is in the mountains. To make this happen we have invited our an amazing intern (meet Liv!) to help make these dreams a reality for outdoor enthusiasts and dreamers across the county.

Get to know Liv!

Howdy! My name is Liv Hart and I am proud to be the Mountain Careers intern. I hail from a little mountain town on the east coast called Princeton, MA, and I’m a rising senior at St. Lawrence University in Canton, NY (20 minutes from the Canadian border!). I spend my time traveling to some of my favorite ski areas — Big Sky, Telluride, Steamboat, and Jackson Hole, and my proudest skiing moment was achieving my Avalanche I Certification at the age of 18. I also enjoy singing and playing guitar, creating art, and exploring new places. 

Why did you join the Mountain Careers team?

I wanted to be a part of Mountain Careers because I find the platform to be a great way to connect young professionals to careers in some of the most beautiful places in America. I have always dreamed of living in some of the towns where opportunities are listed, and I wanted to be able to use my youth to engage people my age who are after the same goal. 

I know a number of people who move out west after they graduate college with not much of a plan, and so I hope to enlighten them with the great, lasting, opportunities that Mountain Careers provides.

What are your plans after college?

After college, I hope to work in Graphic Design in the mountain states or on the west coast. Nothing brings me greater joy than creating a really cool design or logo, and so hopefully someday I can work with big companies like Vans, Patagonia, or The North Face to create products. I’d love to travel post college too, and go back to Austria (where I lived for the better part of this year) — where the skiing and hiking is amazing!

Thanks Liv for joining the team!! We are excited to see your creative energy, entrepreneurial spirit and passion for the outdoors make new connections with Mountain Careers.
