Breanna Bertacchi
Board President & Committee Chair | Guide
Originally from California, but raised in the cornfields of Ohio, Breanna now resides on the South Side of Chicago. When they’re not bike-camping, they’re managing clinical trials, volunteering with their neighborhood Chicago Parks & environmental groups, reading or (most likely) swimming. They’ve ventured all over the US for backpacking trips, rock climbing, kayaking and recently rediscovered fossil hunting. If there's an awesome bug or plant on your ride, Breanna will probably be the one googling it with you to find out what it is. Currently they’re focusing on incorporating greener living into their life, including hen-keeping, beekeeping, foraging and seed saving. Ask about their two pet bunnies!
Started as a participant in the famous Passage to the Rock overnight bike camping festival weekend in 2018. They became a volunteer, guide, first non-founder director of a program as well as President of the Board of Directors.
