Meet Linsday Clarke
Lindsay is a graduate of Amherst College in Massachusetts with a degree in Physics and Religion. After college, she spent a year volunteering overseas with DAPP, teaching English at a rural high school in Mozambique. Upon her return to the States, she spent two years teaching Physics and Geometry at the Berkshire School in Sheffield, MA. She recently moved to Berkeley, CA where she works as a private tutor and is applying for graduate programs in science education.

Her love of the outdoors began in 1999 when she joined a ten-day canoeing and rock climbing adventure through the Hurricane Island Outward Bound program. For two summers in college, Lindsay was a sailing instructor at Big Tree Boating in Maine. She also led freshman orientation canoe trips for three years and went on numerous hiking and backpacking trips. While at Berkshire, she participated in a six-day mountaineering course in Denali National Park, Alaska and earned her SOLO Wilderness First Aid certification. She has been a co-leader for Berkshire School’s Winter Mountaineering program and the rock climbing program. This past summer, she led her first team of Landmark volunteers in the Adirondacks!

In addition to teaching and playing in the woods, Lindsay was a Track and Field coach at Berkshire School and while at Amherst, was a member of the crew and sailing teams as well as the track team. She has traveled to seven foreign countries and can speak fluent Portuguese.
