Kierre Childers has been calling Alaska home since 2015. She started in Willow, Alaska, volunteering on a trail crew at Nancy Lake State Recreation Area.

Her passion for learning, the outdoors, and bringing people together is rooted in Revel operations. Kierre is a Wilderness First Responder, and an EMT. When not guiding she enjoys spending time on trails, biking around downtown Palmer and serving as a new member of the Mat-Su Water Rescue Team.
