Women & Non-Binary Bike Summit

Ann Nguyen (she/her)

Ann is a landscape architect and urban designer who leads public interest-based projects and develops accessible and sustainable open spaces and streetscapes. Her projects include street and pedestrian amenity projects, national park work, trail design, transit, water resources and conservation projects locally and internationally.

As an avid bicyclist and car-free for almost a decade, she is committed to providing safer streets and building awareness in her community through her lifestyle, work, and leadership roles. With her passion for universal design and education, she leads the Equity and Inclusion effort in her regional office and sits on the Bicycle Colorado RIDE (short for Respect, Inclusion, Diversity and Equity) Advisory Board, and LEAP To Education Advisory Board. Ann also works closely with the City of Denver and Downtown Denver Partnership to ensure her community has a voice in new trail and transportation developments. Her involvement in public service projects and equitable design solutions in West Denver was recently recognized by the Denver Inter-Neighborhood Cooperation. Ann understands that planning and design have the power to instigate positive change when deeply rooted in the stories of people and place.

Marley Blonsky (she/her)

Marley is a fat adventure cyclist, advocate, and community organizer working to make the bike industry more inclusive, especially to people in larger bodies. She enjoys all kinds of bike riding – commuting, recreational riding, bike camping – but has lately been enjoying riding around town with her senior rescue dogs in her cargo bike.

Marley recently starred in the Shimano film “All Bodies on Bikes”, which follows her and a friend on a bikepacking trip and dives into issues of body size, being a fat woman in an image conscious society, and the work they’re doing to break down these barriers.

Kailey Kornhauser (she/her)

Kailey is a PhD Candidate in Forest Ecosystems and Society at Oregon State University, the Coordinator of the Oregon Central Coast Forest Collaborative, and an advocate for body size inclusivity in bicycling.

Her writing has previously been featured in Bicycling Magazine, Bikepacking.com, and Get Rad Be Radical Magazine. Marley was recently featured in the Shimano film “All Bodies on Bikes” where she shared her story of being a fat person who rides bikes in Oregon.

Kiran Herbert (she/her)

Kiran is a storyteller, giving voice to PeopleForBikes’ Better Bike Share Partnership and PlacesForBikes programming while maintaining a focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion. Prior to joining the PeopleForBikes team, Kiran worked at various magazines and websites as a writer, editor, and social media coordinator, covering the outdoor industry, live music, and organic food

A native of Portland, Oregon, Kiran holds a master’s of journalism from New York University focusing on Cultural Reporting and Criticism. Although she was previously a road bike guide for active travel company Backroads, these days you’re more likely to find her leisurely pedaling to the farmer’s market in her home of Boulder, Colorado.
