Collaborations

Outside the Office

Cynthia grew up in the Pacific Northwest and is happiest in the mountains. Her favorite activities are backpacking and day hiking and she has a particular fondness for spending time in the North Cascades or any place that has a view of Mount Tahoma (also known as Mount Rainier). She also likes traveling to places with great trails, particularly Iceland, Alaska, and southern Utah. When it comes to non-hiking activities, Cynthia enjoys gardening, cooking, cheering for the U.S. Women’s National Soccer team, and DJing occasional dance parties.

Voth, Cynthia
