Wood River Valley artist Wendy Pabich is the owner of Mad Honey Studio, a water scientist, artist, and, most of all, an adventurer in life and the natural world. Originally from Massachusetts, Wendy found her way to Idaho in 2002 for a Sun Valley Trekking backcountry ski trip where she met Bob Jonas, founder of the Wild Gift, who suggested she come to Sun Valley to study watershed nitrogen issues. The following year she did so with her masters students from MIT, from where she had already earned a PhD in Water Resources and an MS in Environmental Policy and Planning. Needless to say, Pabich’s education reflects an illustrious list of institutions, which also includes an MS in Coastal Geology from Duke University and a BA in Geography from Dartmouth College.
