Mini bio
Adventure before the account.
Samantha and Robert met at Plattsburgh State University in 2005. Before documenting family life, they travelled across the United States, Europe and Patagonia. Their SHEDsistence story began in 2014 with plans to build a small home while both worked full time.
Less house, more room to explore.
They built their 204-square-foot tiny house over 14 months and documented the process online. Their shared e-book, Built With Our Hands, gathered the experience into a DIY memoir. Lower living costs helped make room for travel and time outdoors.
Chasing Sage.
In 2022, a video of their four-year-old daughter snowboarding with a microphone brought the family to a much wider audience. Today Samantha and Robert share family travel and outdoor adventures through Chasing Sage. Samantha also continues her work as a pediatric nurse practitioner.
