Heidi Keaster

Costa Rica Instructor

Heidi, born and raised in Montana, graduated from the University of Montana with a double major in Spanish and Anthropology. Her interest in language and culture has inspired several adventures and extended periods of time in Latin America including Peru, Argentina, Costa Rica, Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands.

Over the past three years she has had a diverse role with EPI. While the majority of her role with EPI has been as the Administrative Coordinator at the World Headquarters office in Missoula, MT; she has also instructed on the Montana’s Greater Yellowstone Ecology program as well as co-instructed as an intern for Costa Rica’s Sea Turtle Ecology program.

Heidi loves traveling and learning not only about different cultures, but also about different environments and ecosystems. She also enjoys hiking to hot springs in the woods while ID-ing the local flora and fauna, knitting and spinning with wool fibers, reading, hunting, cooking and, lately, learning how to play guitar.
