Monica Parpal Stockbridge is a writer and editor born and raised in Colorado. She attended college in Omaha, Nebraska, but always knew she wanted to end up back in the Centennial State. Although she grew up hiking at state parks and snowboarding in the mountains, she didn't become a tent camper until adulthood when she started climbing fourteeners with friends. Now, she can proudly pitch her own tent and cook a good camp dinner on her Coleman stove. She hopes to share many more camping memories with her husband and young daughter.
Monica has written for numerous local, national, and international publications, including The Denver Post, Colorado Traveler Magazine, 5280, Colorado Parent, ColoradoBiz, and Preferred Travel. She contributed to the Moon Denver, Boulder & Colorado Springs guidebook. Today, she writes about travel and technology from her home in Denver.
