Anna Patterson grew up in the mountains of Colorado and has loved the outdoors from a young age. She spent time working in a child development research lab while earning her bachelor's degree in psychology, which is where her desire to work with young people began. She is now pursuing a master's in counseling psychology, with a concentration in expressive arts therapy, at CIIS. Anna moved to Truckee in 2023 and is incredibly excited to be a part of this community. She loves art-making of all kinds, skiing, hiking, and any activity that involves the lake. Most of all, Anna loves sharing her passion for art and nature with others.
