CURRENT MISSION

to travel lightly and live deeply

ABOUT ME

I'm just a guy, trying to figure out how to survive. So far my options are climbing guide, park ranger, technical director (theater) and adventure educator. I'm grateful that I have those choices!

In general, I'd say I'm excited about life.

PHILOSOPHY

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-Being above treeline in NH during the winter. It's like standing on another planet.
-Dropped out of Cornell University to work on becoming a climbing guide...so far, it is totally worth it.
-Climbing on Half Dome in Yosemite National Park. Stellar.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm fluent in Spanish, and would be more than willing to help you practice if you wish. I can teach rock climbing movement and all the ropework that goes along with it, including what to pack and how to dress for a day in extreme weather. Brewing, mostly of wine, is something I've just gotten into.

I also used to be a professional scenic carpenter...so if you want to know the inner workings of how theatre sets are built, ask me!
