What’s the best part of your job?

Getting out on the water, shooting photos and helping out with the Foundation trips!

I love the North Fork of the Mokelumne River. The water is crazy clear and there’s tons of beautiful swimming holes and a few secret natural water slides.

I never go anywhere, except the airport, without my Swiss Army knife.

My cameras!

Fun fact, special talent or favorite trip memory.

I sailed across the Pacific in a friend’s 37-foot sailboat. It took 23 days, but we had an unforgettable time.

About me…
