About the editor

Meet Maya Ridge

A field guide, not a gear pile

Maya Ridge is the editor and webmaster of RSS Mountain. She is based near Bend, Oregon, and covers outdoor living, creator cameras, podcast equipment, editing tools, and calmer ways to publish online.

She grew up in Spokane, Washington. Weekend hikes and a hand-me-down tape recorder fed the same habit: notice small details, then explain them in plain words.

Maya studied journalism and audio production before working in local radio, outdoor retail, and freelance web publishing. She started RSS Mountain after watching new creators buy piles of gear before they knew what problem they were trying to solve.
