About me
When I'm not answering the OARS phone, I am teaching yoga, hiking or SUPing with my pup, painting, and paddling.
The Best Part of My Job
Being able to connect people with trips that will change their lives.
How I found OARS
I have a degree in Commercial Recreation and Tourism and have been guiding and working in outfitting on the East Coast since 2008. To me, OARS was always the ideal, so I'm happy to be here.
My Favorite Spot on the River/Outdoors
My favorite rapid is Bottle of Wine on the Lower Youghiogheny River. Who doesn't love a bottle of wine?
Favorite River Tradition
There's a group of us who invented Youghtoberfest and paddle sections of the Youghiogheny every October while the leaves are changing colors!
I Can’t Live Without
At least on cool days, my fleece shark onesie.
My Fun Fact
