Brief Bio
I have made a late life start on pursuing my guide track; however, it has been a very rewarding journey so far. Beyond my AMGA pursuits, I thoroughly enjoy working with youth and families and in the conservation arena. I have founded a nonprofit called SOYECC where we get youth involved in environmental stewardship and responsible outdoor recreation. My development in the realm of outdoors education is to satisfy the needs for strong leadership within the SOYECC organization. I have a knack for philanthropy and human service. I am passionate about snowboarding, backpacking, photography, conservation & stewardship, all the while cultivating my mountain craft.
You can catch me through my email, at a SOYECC event, working with 5.Thirteen (a climbing education organization developing in the Cincinnati, OH area), in the Red with Torrent Falls Climbing, in the Pickett Range or PNW in general!
Fun Fact
I make an amazing tattoo machine, on par with some of the greats! I have an affinity for tattoos and the art – would love to tattoo. Unfortunately, not much time for dialing in my skills - can’t seem to stop wiggling around outside. ;)
