Heather Gallagher

Activities
Coordinator
Bio

I am the full-time Activities Coordinator at Happy Days. My goal is to make sure you enjoy your time in Moab. I work with guests prior to and during your stay at the property to coordinate and schedule activities around Moab. From mountain biking, road biking, floating the Colorado river, hiking, visiting the National Parks, to just relaxing by the pool.

I grew up in Oregon and graduated from Oregon State University with a Bachelor’s degree in Marketing and a minor in Psychology. After completing University, I decided it was time to escape the drizzly Northwest and quickly discovered the sunny paradise of Moab, Utah in 2002. My passions are rock climbing, mountain biking, canyoneering, SUPing, traveling, scuba diving and exploring the beautiful outdoors. Over the years, I have been able to thoroughly explore Moab on and off the beaten path. Working at Happy Days lets me share the beauty and adventure Moab has to offer.

I have worked as a rock climbing/canyoneering guide, wilderness therapy guide, server/bartender/cater, and as an event coordinator. I am certified as a Wilderness First Responder, CPR and have my advanced PADI scuba diving certificate.

I am a traveler at heart. Not being much of a cold-weather person, I typically travel overseas every winter to somewhere warm. I have filled my passport with numerous countries such as Thailand, South Africa, Colombia, Cuba, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Belize, Panama, the list goes on.

Looking forward to sharing my skills and knowledge of the area with you! ​

Caretaker

Bio

I am the full-time, on-site, Caretaker for the Happy Days property. I have been a part of the Happy Days project and development since the land was purchased in 2019. My favorite part of my job is ensuring guests enjoy their time at the property, get to experience all Moab has to offer, and leave feeling more relaxed and energized than when they arrived. I am here to help guests from the moment they want to book a stay; to departure, and everything in between. While on site, I am here to help groups throughout the day from relaxation, fun and organization.

I have been a resident of Moab for 16 years. Originally from Indiana, I moved to the desert for its beauty and lack of snow. Prior to my employment at Happy Days I worked in hotel and restaurant management. I am an advanced registered yoga teacher who has five certifications from India, a certified CrossFit Instructor, and avid traveler. I own the Moab Yoga Festival and work with our schools to keep Yoga and Mindfulness available to students.

I live on property with my amazing husband Bernard (a French Chef), our son Jean-Bernard, and a snorting French bulldog named Bisous.​

Activities Coordinator &
Assistant Caretaker
Bio

I am a full-time Activities Coordinator and Assistant Caretaker here at Happy Days. My job is to help guests enjoy their time on the property and experience all that Moab has to offer. I love that my job at Happy Days allows me to help people experience the beauty of Moab.

After growing up in Salt Lake City and spending most of our family vacations in Moab, I moved here in 2010 to guide on the Colorado River. During that time, I met my husband, Josh. We now have 2 kids, Estelle and Henry. After a few seasons of guiding on the river, I decided to give teaching Elementary School a shot. After 10 years, I decided that was enough of that. Which led me to Happy Days! One thing I love about Moab is having all 4 seasons! During the winter months, you can find me chasing my daughter around ski resorts on my skis or snowboard (obviously not in Moab but still within driving range). In the summertime, I try my best to stay next to any source of water. In the spring and fall, you can find me trail running, hiking and mountain biking through the desert with my family.
