Taryn Samuels

Taryn has always had a deep connection to and appreciation for the outdoors. Growing up in Des Moines and St. Charles, she has fond memories of sleeping under the stars, wading in streams searching for cool rocks, driftwood and other treasures. Spending time in nature continues to be a huge part of Taryn’s life.  Teaching her daughters to be curious about nature and witnessing their love and connection with nature and animals has been her greatest accomplishment. Taryn holds a B.A. in Environmental Studies and minor in Native American Studies from the University of Iowa.
