On this episode of The Nomadic Outdoorsman Dan talks with Charmaine Leath, an outdoorswoman whose passion for the outdoors led her to make a name for herself in the outdoor industry and has allowed her to hunt and fish all over the world.

Charmaine is based out of Southwest Colorado but hunts and fishes worldwide. She grew up in a small oilfield town in New Mexico, spending most of her childhood with horses and in the outdoors hunting, fishing, and camping. After graduating she moved around the country working as a medical aesthetician and fiddled with photography. She would make yearly tips home to hunt and fish with her dad but ended up settling down in a small country town in Colorado in her late 20s which is when she really dove deep into making her outdoor dreams come true.

Charmaine didn’t come from money and didn’t have an “in” in the outdoor industry. Despite not having a connection she dove in feet first. She already had an eye and love for photography and she wanted to partner and represent companies whose passion and desire she could align with and whose gear and values matched hers. Her first partnership was with SKRE Gear and from there she continued to grow in the outdoors gaining more brands, sponsorships, traveling and hunting more and working expos and events.
