Welcome Paloma!


A warm welcome to Thrive Hood River’s new Communications and Fundraising Specialist, Paloma Ayala!

A proud Hood River resident for the past 15 years, Paloma has cultivated a deep-rooted connection to the Columbia River Gorge. Her admiration for the region has evolved into a profound commitment to its protection. As a passionate photographer, Paloma has captured the breathtaking beauty firsthand.

You’ll find her work featured in publications such as The Gorge Magazine, Columbia Riverkeeper Currents Newsletter, Friends of the Columbia Gorge Magazine, Columbia Land Trust Magazine, Good Fruit Grower Magazine, and Washington Trails Magazine, among others, providing exposure for local stories and causes. 

In her free time, you will find her with her camera early in the morning or late in the day, catching images of the Columbia Gorge or Mount Hood.
