ABOUT
I was first introduced to climbing as a teenager and it rapidly consumed my life. The rest is history...
​Currently, I am a full time mountain guide based out of Bozeman, Montana. Through the outdoors, I seek out challenge, adventure, and friendships. If I'm not out at a local crag or on an extended trip, it's likely that I'm sipping some beer and working on my van.
