Bio:
A Seattle native, Yasmin works for the local county government helping to deal with the do-do we all do (wastewater treatment). When she isn’t working at her day job, she is actively searching for truth and beauty in the world by capturing it in her photography, creating it in the jewelry she makes, and discovering it through investigation. Always looking for her next challenge and adventure, Yasmin was ecstatic when Baatar Hero invited her to join them on the Mongol Rally. Joining the team along the way, she willingly acknowledges her pack-mule role bringing supplies, treats, maybe even a transmission with her if it will fit in her backpack. Yet it is also her boundless resourcefulness, energy and humor that she brings to the team while ensuring her team members have what they need, which truly makes her a welcome addition to Baatar Hero.
She’s traveled to England, Ireland, Greece, Italy, Spain, France, Switzerland, Egypt, Croatia, Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania, Ukraine, Germany, Belgium, Amsterdam, Mexico and the Philippines. Throughout her travels, she has loved experiencing the culture of each new country she has visited.
On this trip, Yasmin looks forward to capturing the all the beauty that we encounter along the way. This may be found in the rugged landscapes through which we will travel and the communities that we come across. She is proud to support RoamGreen and Mercy Corps, and personally experience why and for whom they do their work.
