I was into all kinds of sports as a kid and played college soccer before transitioning to climbing. I climbed obsessively for a solid decade, then felt the urge to do more variety so I started doing more endurance stuff. I got into biking(mtn and road), running(trail is my preference), and I had swam through high school, so Tri's were a natural fit as well. Living in Alaska, I get outside every chance I get to enjoy the spectacular wilderness, hiking, camping, skiiing, snowboarding, climbing, fishing, hunting, etc. I look forward to all that life has to offer, every day is a new opportunity to do something fun.
