My name is Cody Robinson-Bullock, and I am the founder of SCHOVENTURES LLC, an experiential outdoor adventure company dedicated to creating meaningful experiences that help people, organizations, and communities connect, grow, and thrive. With a background in outdoor leadership and global community development, I have spent more than a decade designing and facilitating experiential education programs, developing youth leadership initiatives, guiding paddling and day trips, and leading corporate retreats. My work is grounded in the belief that adventure is defined by those who choose to embrace it. Every experience is intentionally designed to leave participants feeling more connected, confident, and curious than when they arrived. My professional journey has taken me across New York and throughout the United States, with educational, professional, and facilitation experiences in Michigan, Tennessee, Illinois, Ohio, Kenya, Tanzania, and Nepal. These opportunities have strengthened my belief that the outdoors is more than a destination. It is a classroom where people build confidence, strengthen relationships, develop leadership skills, and cultivate a deeper appreciation for themselves, nature, and their communities.
