Our vision is to build, educate and support a community of adventurers whose outdoor experiences will inspire them to take risks and explore the great outdoors while protecting ecosystems.
Organizational Structure
EpicTrek is a multi-layered organization with five main adventurers at its core. This passionate team is responsible for creating educational content, designing personalized treks and developing an engaged community of adventurers at all levels.
Location
EpicTrek is located in the hearts of all adventurers. A purely digital company with no physical structure, EpicTrek serves clients worldwide through a digital platform and social media.
Our Team
Our unique leadership team has a background in all things outdoors. We range from beginner to experienced so we can meet you at your level.
Katie “Weekend Trail Walk Warrior” Bex
Marketing Director
Katie is middle of the road. No, seriously she stays mid-trail so that she can enjoy the wildlife on the trails, not get chased by it. Katie represents our “middle of the road” abilities, and while she successfully completed a 200 mile Team Relay through New Hampshire a few years back, these days she chases her twin girls down scenic trails. Living near Valley Forge National Park, she spends time appreciating outdoor activities involving historical sites and rolling hills. Katie brings to EpicTrek a strategic background in SEO planning and technical recommendations. View Katie’s Portfolio
James “Wizard of Want” Jeansonne
Director of Operations
James wants more: adventure, epic treks, thrills, and challenges, and is guilty of writing checks his body can’t cash. He represents our weekend warrior. Growing up in New Jersey, James wanted to be in the same arena as the athletes in Jim McKay’s Wide World of Sports. As an adult, father of two, and living in the midwest, he spends his spare time running triathlons, checking U.S. National Parks off his bucket list, being a parent, and living his okayest life.

Jill “Nomadic” Koslosky
Director of Adventure Experience
Jill has traded a desk job in higher education for a permanently nomadic adventure. A seeker of the big challenges, she enjoys introducing students, family, and friends to things they never thought they could do. Whether traversing the Grand Canyon, an overnight backpacking trip on horses, or diving into the blue waters of the world’s oceans, Jill finds the harder the challenge the more rewarding the life. Jill’s goal is to introduce the average adventurer to the sport of scuba diving as she travels the world as a nomadic dive instructor and lives a great story! A storyteller at heart, Jill brings writing and photography skills to Epic Trek. View Jill’s Portfolio
Sara “Outdoor Observer” Kies
Digital Experience Director
Sara prefers to watch from the sidelines. She enjoys the outdoors from the comfort of her air-conditioned cabin on the Wapsipinicon River in rural Iowa. You can occasionally find her kayaking with her two boys and husband or sitting by the campfire, but most likely you’ll find her with a laptop designing a logo, website or digital marketing campaign.
