Hi y'all! I'm Quinn McGuire and I'm from Durham, NC. I'm in my third year at App State as a Recreation Management major, with a concentration in Outdoor Experiential Education. I also am a Biology minor. I work as a student manager at Trivette and am also a coach on the mountain bike team for Watauga high school. When I'm not doing all of those things, I love to ride my mountain bike, go backpacking, hang out with my cat, or get crafty and use my hands. I'm passionate about nature, building community, making things, and helping others. I'm a big fan of planning, and I can't wait to use my skills to serve as a Watauga peer advisor!
