Marketing CoordinatorJordy Oleson

Jordy learned early on the importance of living life to its fullest and always following your heart. This mentality led Jordy to his first international immersion experience as a volunteer instructor for a 3rd and 4th grade class at an environmentally-based ESL school in Monteverde, Costa Rica. While abroad for the first time, Jordy reinforced his attitude towards life and further developed an appreciation for foreign cultures, adventure, and sustainable development. He is now dedicated to sharing similar experiences with as many people as he can. In addition to his time spent in Costa Rica, he has enjoyed significant travel through South America to develop his Spanish-speaking skills.

Jordy received his Bachelor of Science in Business Administration: Marketing, as well as a Spanish Minor and an International Business Certificate. He has worked professionally in marketing, promotions, consulting and fundraising. Recently, he has spent a substantial amount of time helping to develop an eco-lodge that will generate financial self-sufficiency and a sustainable future for an orphanage on the shore of Lake Kivu in Rwanda.

In his free time, Jordy enjoys both creating and listening to as much music as he can. In the winter you can find him snowboarding, and in the summer you can find him hiking, biking or just tossing a frisbee around with his friends.
