One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Survived four years at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (barely)- that was bleh though; climbed a huge granite tower in the midnight sun above the Arctic Circle in Norway!

Teach, Learn, Share

When the weather is nice, I am really happy to take people climbing in Eldorado Canyon, the Flatirons, or Lumpy Ridge, etc- even if they are relatively new to outdoor climbing. It gives me great pleasure, and it's also valuable practice for me before I take my guide certification exams!
