Charley is originally from Steamboat Springs, Colorado, but moved to Bozeman to study graphic design at MSU. She has always loved being around kids and is excited to be a part of The Sandbox crew!

She’s an athlete at heart and loves being outside, whether it’s hiking, skiing, or spending time outside with her French bulldog Brisket. She tries to bring that energy and curiosity into her work with kids by incorporating nature-based play and creative, hands-on activities. She also has a younger brother with autism, which has shaped the way she approaches connections, with patience, empathy, and inclusivity.

When she’s not at school or The Sandbox, you can usually find her out on the trails or enjoying the mountains with friends. She loves helping kids feel confident, curious, and supported as they grow.
