HYGIENE FIRE - Key Persons


Andie Adam

Job Titles:
  • Board Director
  • Member of the Board
Director Adam has been a part of the Hygiene community for six years and has lived in Boulder County for ten. Her work in the construction industry as well as her husband's horse training business near Lefthand Canyon has brought her in close proximity to both the 2013 Flood as well as two separate wildfires in the area. She witnessed the Hygiene and surrounding communities come together in incredible ways during and after each of these events. These experiences have compounded with her belief that lasting improvements to our world begin at the hyperlocal level. Having a younger brother who has made a career as a wildland firefighter has also given her unique insight into the challenges firefighters face.
