That’s me. Michele. Founder of Overland Girl.

Born in small-town Georgia, Michele grew up outside—ripping a Honda Z50 through the woods, lifeguarding summers, and spending Sundays fishing. Oh, and let’s not forget biking. Today, she’s a Creative Director and outdoor storyteller behind Overland Girl.

At 40, alopecia areata took hold; instead of sidelining her, it pushed her toward endurance cycling. She’s raced gravel and MTB, and when the snow hits, she’s chasing laps in Utah, Colorado, and the Midwest. Whether designing for brands, pedaling back roads, or filming from the van, her throughline is the same: practical, honest stories from the trail.
