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...
