Serena lives in Bend with her husband, Ben, and medium-sized pup, Piper, and loves her morning coffee almost as much as she loves riding her bike. Serena is a professional cyclist with Liv Racing Collective, an avid nordic skier (occasional racer), cycling coach and writer. She also works as the Sustainability Manager for Visit Bend, striving to develop and implement sustainable solutions for our recreation tourism industry; taking care of the places that take care of us is her top priority.  Serena believes in the power of optimism, the awesome wonders of spending time outdoors, and the progressive process of continual improvement.
