Hello,

My name is Brad and I grew up in Bismarck, ND. I lived in North Dakota for most of my life. I met my fiance, Kate when she was doing clinical rotations during medical school. Kate was matched in residency in Ogden, Utah, so we packed everything up and moved in 2019. We have lived in Utah for the last 4 years and have loved it.

We live in the perfect location to enjoy our activities. We love to mountain bike, hike, ski, and do anything else outdoors. We love to explore and be outside.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are traveling to Switzerland and Chamonix in early July, 2023 for wilderness medicine courses. We are planning to explore Geneva and Lauterbrunnen area the first week of July. The second week of July we will be in Chamonix. We would love to meet some locals, learn about the culture and enjoy the beautiful country.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

This spring I completed an Ironman 70.3 triathlon. The race included a 1.2 mile swim (1.9 km), 56 miles bike (90 km) and 13.1 mile run (21.2 km). I finish in 5 hours and 28 min!
