Wander Project Board of Directors
President
Lindsey Powers
Lindsey works with small business owners throughout the Colorado, Utah and Kansas markets as a Portfolio Manager with the SBA division of NBH Bank. In this role, Lindsey works with small business and commercial bankers to identify, grow, and underwrite loan opportunities within these communities and ensures the overall success of her assigned portfolios.
Prior to transitioning to the SBA division, she developed her banking experience and skills as an underwriter focusing on C&I, commercial real estate, and private banking loans. However, she has not always been in banking.
As a small business owner herself, she developed a passion and deep understanding for the challenges small business owners and nonprofits face on a day-to-day basis.
In 2019, Lindsey went out for a trail run with a friend and fell in love with the sport. By partnering with Wander Project, she intends to utilize her professional experience in order to give back to this sport that she loves and to racing communities throughout the country.
BOd Member
Jocelyn Boss
Jocelyn has nearly 20 years of experience working in the nonprofit sector and brings that expertise in her position on the Wander Project board. She began her career working for Grand Teton National Park Foundation and has held positions at the National Museum of Wildlife Art and Public Lands Alliance before transitioning into her current role as Area Sales Manager for The Cloudveil and SpringHill Suites in Jackson, Wyoming, where she resides.
While Jocelyn would not describe herself as a "runner", she was inspired to sign up as a charity bib athlete after joining the board of Wander Project. Having never jogged more than 3 miles before, Jocelyn stretched out of her comfort zone and completed the Vacation Races Grand Teton Half Marathon in 2023 and was a charity bib athlete for the Great Smokies Half Marathon in September 2023. These experiences were transformational for her.
Jocelyn is passionate about public lands and is inspired by the mission of Wander Project and the power of philanthropy to help support important projects and programs that make a meaningful impact. When not at work, you can find Jocelyn enjoying the outdoors with her husband and 2 sons traveling, rafting, camping, skiing, fishing, hiking.

Josh Lukasak
Josh is passionate about the outdoors and the preservation of public spaces; he is eager to use this passion and drive to support the goals of Wander Project.
He currently is working as a Senior Project Manager within the supply chain of a major aerospace corporation collaborating with key partners to support critical business objectives.
He shares his love of nature with his wife, Sarah, and 4 children. They often can be found on weekends exploring the trails and parks of the Carolinas, as well as taking extended trips to explore the rest of the country. Josh and Sarah enjoy running and have passed that on to their two oldest children who recently ran in their first trail run and first 5k.
He is excited to help expand the reach of Wander Project and continue the success and impact of their mission.
