Backstory
Hey Peoria, I’m Nick Guy, the founder and creator of the Peoria Pathfinder. I graduated from Bradley in 2023 and moved here after I graduated for work.
I realized a few things when I moved here.
- I knew very little about Peoria.
- There's a lot to do here.
- Information about organizations, places, and events are really scattered and hard to find online if you don’t already know about them.
So I decided to build the platform I wish I had when I moved here and that I want now as a current resident.
The Foundations
At the foundation of the Pathfinder is my belief that if you’re curious, compassionate, and optimistic you can enjoy your life so much more, regardless of where you’re at (which I know is not always easy).
To make sure I build the Pathfinder in alignment with these beliefs I established these principles to help guide me.
Pathfinder Principles
- Local in person exploration and connection is better for our wellbeing.
- Each of us are responsible for contributing to and improving our community.
- Less screen time is better.
