Staff
Bevin Barber-Campbell, Executive Director
Ticket to Ride is the latest creative project of Bevin Barber-Campbell, our executive director. Ticket to Ride is functionally a non-profit, fiscally sponsored by the Tiny Seed Project.
Bevin has over 15 years of experience in designing and implementing educational and encouragement programming to promote bicycle commuting and Safe Routes to School. She is a safe cycling instructor, certified by the League of American Bicyclists.
After moving back to Vermont from Colorado, Bevin was surprised to discover that she could bicycle commute in a rural area. In fact, her favorite bike commute of her lifetime has been in Vermont. As a result, Bevin is determined to demonstrate to her fellow community members the feasibility of bicycle commuting in rural Vermont and beyond.
