About Us

From an early age, Lisa’s psychologist dad told her she had a high adventure quotient. A life filled with outdoor experiences both, personal and professional, lead to a deep love of spending time outside in beautiful places and sharing those experiences with others. Adventure Quotient aims to do just that, instill in people a sense of awe, wonder, and stewardship of our incredible earth through outdoor travel and connection. 

By trade, Shawna is a nonprofit leader who uplifts kids, wellbeing and communities. Her adventurous spirit is grounded in public health leadership and training with the YMCA, Outward Bound, and glorious outdoor classrooms.

Shawna has led retreats on St John since 2022 and has enjoyed witnessing the restoration of the national park, trails and habitat. She also enjoys a behind-the-scenes role supporting the mission of AQ.
