My name is Alexandra but I go by AJ. I used to be a choir director in public schools for 6 years, then branched into outdoor recreation education, and finally settled on teaching mushing lessons! I love singing, having bonfires with friends, and calling family on the phone just to say hi. I’m passionate about exercising dogs, camping, different languages, and music. I come from a very driven family, so they understand my commitment to mushing, and live going on sled rides. Can’t wait for this mushing season.

WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO START RUNNING SLED DOGS AND HOW OLD WERE YOU WHEN YOU STARTED?
I became a musher in 2017 when I adopted a my dog Jack from Craigslist. He was very high energy and needed a sport. We started canicross and slowly began trying other dog powered sports. Thanks to mentors we learned and grew our kennel, and opened up a store dedicated to mushing. Now we help beginners acquire gear, lessons, and introduction to the mushing community.
