Ady Olson

Ady has been diving into projects at Headwaters since she knocked on the door and asked to volunteer in winter of 2009, shortly after first setting foot in Minnesota. A graduate of the University of Puget Sound, Ady has a degree in comparative sociology with a focus on identity and social change. She has a passion for imaginative social and cultural change and appreciates approaches that defy norms in order to catch attention and push people to think critically about the way they live. Ady enjoys adventures outdoors, discovery, the brain, maps and diagrams, astronomy, and being shoeless. She has a keen sense of direction and an uncanny knack for spotting satellites.
