ABOUT ELLEN
Ellen is a 25-year-old adventure traveler and flight instructor.
Raised in rural East Texas, she learned how to fly from her Dad, an ex Air Force pilot.
She went on to become a flight instructor and has been teaching new pilots how to fly for five years.
Always with a passion for adventure, Ellen has paddled, cycled, hitchhiked, and rowed for a total of over 10,000 miles and 18 months on various nefarious adventures, both solo and dual, domestic and international.
She plans to continue both adventuring and flight instructing, switching from one to the other “when the conditions are favorable.”
