Nat worked as an independent marketing, design and photography consultant; he is also certified as a California Department of Forestry firefighter, a California State Park Docent, and in Wilderness First Aid. Rachael and Nat both hail from California, but have had the opportunity to explore some of the best riding throughout North America.
