Claire grew up a stone's throw from the Prairie Path and was born into a family that loved biking, so much so that we had a "family bike group." Family bike group consisted of several tandems, burleys, and tag-alongs -- to say it was a sight to see is an understatement. But this planted the seed of biking as a form of community and adventure. As she grew up, Claire found a love of working with kids by way of nannying and theater, and in her adult life found out that there was this whole field of work called youth development and out-of-school programs. Professionally, Claire served in program coordination roles at various Chicago organizations and continues to work in community partnerships. Now through Out Our Front Door Claire is thrilled to have the opportunity to blend the two worlds of biking and youth work.
