About me
I teach at a university and ski patrol part time during the winters.
The Best Part of My Job
I love sharing this special place with people, and showing them an important resource to protect.
How I found OARS
I had wanted to guide since I was a teenager. When I finally got brave enough to apply for river jobs, OARS (Don Hatch at the time) was one of the first to get back to me. I feel lucky to have found Dinosaur during that transition time.
My Favorite Spot on the River/Outdoors
I love desert canyons of all sizes and character.
My Favorite Trip Memory
There's too many to pick just one. So many smiles and laughs with amazing people.
I Can’t Live Without
Sun protection! Hoody, glasses, hat...
