Meet the Team
Shyanne Orvis, Host
Conventional was the name of the game in my family, and when I discovered fly fishing, the passion consumed me. I dove head first into the sport and it was my own version of fishing then what I had known as a child. The excitement and thrill of pursing various species on fly was unmatched and it's what feeds this hunger to travel, and explore. In the midst of a challenging childhood, fishing is what kept me grounded and in a lot of ways healed me. It was the calm to the chaos. Now it’s my personal mission to connect and empower others through this sport that I love dearly. it's inspired me to create a space that always remains authentic and inclusive. Which was my exact intention for creating a fly fishing retreat that was centered around mindfulness and connection with others, ourselves, and the outdoors. (:
Sara Saez, Chef
Sara’s passion for cooking comes from a combination of two bigger passions - nutrition and community - believing these two components heal us. The art of cooking is nothing without love, nourishment and togetherness. Sara has always cooked for family and friends with a focus on presentation and showcasing a variety of flavors. When she started to study nutrition, she became obsessed with the functionality and healing powers of food. Now, Sara’s mission is to use food as fuel and medicine, never sacrificing flavor.
Sara works as a private chef in Aspen, CO - for families who allow her full creativity, trusting her to weave together farm fresh and organic ingredients with elements of functional medicine.
Sara studies functional medicine and is on the path to becoming a naturopath. She is so happy her two passions work together so well.
