Meet Deirdre,

Deirdre graduated Temple University with a degree in Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences and spent almost a decade working in the healthcare industry before joining the Settle Down team as our operations project manager. Her favorite thing about living in Philly is how walkable the city is, and when she's not at work can usually be found somewhere in the city on a long "urban hike" with her husband and their dog, Clover. Outside of her day-to-day in Philly, Deirdre spends as much time as she can outdoors camping, backpacking, and hiking across the northeast, mostly frequenting places a few hours drive from Philly such as the Appalachian Trail, the New Jersey Pine Barrens, and the Catskills, where she's currently working towards becoming a member of Catskills 3500 club.
