About Me

I grew up in a small town in southern colorado called Alamosa. When I was 13 I spent a year living in Xalapa, Mexico. It was fun but I was 13 so I was somewhat awkward haha. I also started playing the guitar at the age of 13 and eventually went on to study jazz guitar at the University of Northern Colorado in Greeley. After completing my degree I spent a year couch surfing with friends while climbing, playing music and working at Starbucks. In the summer of 2014 I moved to Corvallis, Oregon with my girlfriend where I worked at a co-operative grocery store. Although I loved my job and community Oregon was not a good fit for a die-hard boulderer so in 2016 I decided to return to colorado. I've spent the last six months climbing all over the west and living mostly out of my car. I've supported myself through my savings and odd jobs.

I love romantic movies and sci-fi. Eternal sunshine of a spotless mind and Star Trek DS9 are two of my favorites.
