Hello, I’m Molly Liston and I’m so excited to relocate from Anchorage back to Homer. I spent many years living in Homer when I was younger and have kayak guided in Kachemak Bay along with visiting often to see family. My husband, Matt, began building us a cabin on the North Fork last summer and we managed to reach our goal of a standing structure by the end of the summer! My heart is calling me and my family back to Homer and we couldn’t be happier. I want my kids, Oakley and Huck, to experience the magic of Homer that I carry with me from my own childhood.

I love spending time outside and bring with me over 20 years of experience working with children and teaching them how to create healthy habits for life. I love watching children's curiosity lead them in a direction of growth and exploration. I focus on Experiential and Outdoor Education as well as Social and Emotional learning. I love being creative to help build confidence and excitement in young learners.

I have certifications in Wilderness First Responder, Swiftwater Rescue, Avalanche Level 2, High and Low Ropes Courses Rescue Level 2, Bachelors in Outdoor Education and Physical Education, and experience guiding hiking, backpacking, kayaking, rafting, ice climbing, and glacier travel. I’ve taken students of all ages into the backcountry of Alaska and have especially loved my time on many trips into the Brooks Range. I am currently the Physical and Outdoor Education teacher at Pacific Northern Academy in Anchorage and have been in this position since 2014. Watch out Homer because we are headed your way this summer!
