My name is Chloe Ray Cobb and I am currently an 18 year old Senior at Boulder High School. I was born in Chicago, Illinois and after living in the city for 11 years, moved to Boulder, Colorado with my family (and 2 cats).

My parents have encouraged me all my life to do what’s healthiest for me - whether that's eating right, daily exercise, getting outside in nature, mindfulness, and/or pursuing things that make me happy (like horseback riding, hip hop dance, yoga, music, playing cards, any/all animals). They are also entrepreneurs and have had multiple businesses. Their current business, Akamai, is an ecommerce natural personal care products business that focuses on health, simplicity, and sustainability. Akamai is a B Corporation (business for good) and a 1% For the Planet Member (donating 1% of sales to organizations involved in saving and regenerating the planet). Their drive to use their business to make a difference in our world has inspired me to go into business too. My parents have been my true teachers and this environment (my life experience) has helped spark my thirst for knowledge and exploration - I want to do better for myself and for others.

As I continue this path in mindfulness I become more passionate about it and realize its importance in my life. My goal is to encourage others, especially teens and young adults, to join me on an “upward spiral”.
