Jake Urban and Marilynn Davis’ combined Bio Both Marilynn and Jake attended college in the state of Vermont, and then stayed long after graduation to live in the lush green mountains. It is there, where they met on the mountain bike trails of East Burke. Marilynn taught high school while completing her Doctorate of Education at the University of Vermont before taking a job in the Education Department at Lyndon State College (LSC). LSC was not only Jake’s alma mater, but also an employer of the past 10 years where he taught as an Adjunct Professor in the Mountain Recreation Management Department. Their meeting brought to a close the Vermont chapters of their lives. After a very short courtship, the two wed, and moved from Vermont in a combined effort to reinvent themselves. After much deliberation they settled in Jackson, WY. Both continued teaching by securing positions with Central Wyoming College soon after their arrival. Additionally, in an effort to connect and support the community, Marilynn began to volunteer with JH Fire/EMS as an EMT-‐Firefighter. Jake had many years of mountaineering and ski patrolling under his belt and was able to apply his experience to his volunteer work with Teton County Search and Rescue. Volunteer work blossomed into professional ventures for them both. Marilynn is now a paid staff member of JH Fire/EMS. She begins Paramedic training in the fall of 2014. Jake is now the Training Director and Deputy Director for Teton County Search and Rescue. Their combined interest and experience in rescue work was the inspiration for the development of their business, Jackson Hole Outdoor Leadership Institute, LLC. The school provides pre-‐hospital emergency medical training and avalanche education. In their free time you can find them recreating in the mountains around Jackson Hole. Spending their time in the winter months backcountry skiing and the summer months rock climbing and mountain biking. Jacob J. Urban P.O.
