Luis Lopez

Mentor/Peer Support

Raised in San Luis Obispo, Luis Lopez grew up on the West Coast of California where one can find beaches, mountains, and valleys. After graduating from Cal Poly SLO with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a minor in Child Development, he went into the mental health field by supporting high-needs youth through county mental health and foster youth programs. Growing up while facing life’s challenges, Luis took every opportunity to be at one with nature. He soon realized this was a coping skill others could benefit from. Whether he's hiking trails, dipping in the lakes, or running in marathons, you will most likely find Luis exploring the Tahoe area.
