CURRENT MISSION

Live a life of purpose, seek adventure, and get outside as much as possible.

ABOUT ME

Originally from Michigan, moving back to Durango, CO in the Fall. I love coffee and a good book, traveling, doing anything outdoors, and music. In my free time, you'll probably find me mountain biking, skiing, climbing, learning to ride a motorcycle, cooking, painting, playing my guitar, reading a book, or planning the next big adventure.

PHILOSOPHY

Do justice, love kindness, walk humbly, find the beauty in all things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One time in my life that really influenced how I live was the three months I spent backpacking, mountaineering, and kayaking in Alaska. New people, beautiful places, experiencing challenge, relying on the basics of survival and relationship. Simplicity. Amazing.
