Colorado Parks and Wildlife Pilot Denise Joi Has the World’s Coolest Job

ย 

Denise Joi is one of four pilots for Colorado Parks and Wildlife, where she flies a small Cessna between soaring Rocky Mountain peaks, conducting wildlife surveys and — more dangerous and dramatic — fish drops, stocking pristine alpine lakes with trout and grayling. We spoke with her about her incredible job, but also her amazing short film “Fight or Flight” that shows the real reason she pursued flying and how that pursuit helped heal trauma.ย 

Follow Denise on her Instagram account, @denise.joi. She’s in the process of making a website, denisejoi.com.ย
