Beyond the obvious goal of connecting employers and job seekers, my own personal goal for MountainJobs.com is to bring together those who truly love the mountains, and are dedicated to finding a way to make or keep them their home. I followed my own dream to leave New York City for life in the mountains, and can say there has been a lot of learning, loving and growing that has happened for me here in the past 10 years. Through my own journey, I have found that it has not been one, but a consistent string of memorable moments that has made my life so special here in Jackson Hole.

There is something to be said about being so up close and personal with nature, surrounded by incredibly passionate people, and a growing appreciation for simple pleasures.
