We Welcome Your Application to Join Us!
We build each of our groups with care, keeping the groups small (no more than twelve students), and paying close attention to age, grade, gender, and the mix of hometowns and schools. Our goal is to put together great groups — groups where nice kids thrive in a supportive, wholesome, and caring environment. Please note: availability as shown is based on students traveling without a friend; if your child is interested in traveling with a friend, please call our office for availability.

When I was young, my favorite game was herding frogs.
As veterans of the sport know, it demands exceptional levels of teamwork and bravery. My friends and I would lay on the ground and link hands, encircling the frog within an arm fence. Keeping your nerve was no small feat, especially when our warty friend started hopping closer and closer to our hands or faces. Here at Overland, we aren’t herding frogs (yet), but we embrace challenges, love to work together, and savor a good laugh.
In college I was tutoring, teaching classes, and constantly volunteering for education institutions. Then a friend approached me about Overland, a company that took an experiential approach to growth and development. I led Northwest Expedition and joined the office the spring of 2021. I have loved witnessing young people hone new skills, forge diverse friendships, and, again and again, rise to the occasion.
There’s so much I love about my job. Everyone brings a smile to work, everyone believes in what we do, everyone is dedicated to one another, and nobody thinks herding frogs is a bad way to spend your spare time.
