about:

I was born in Sun Valley, Idaho, the south central mountains of this beautiful Gem state. I moved to Boise at age 10, graduated from Boise High School then University of Idaho with a BFA and minor in Architecture. I experience outdoor recreation through countless activities. I was fortunate to be born with skis on my feet and challenge myself to continual learning through adventure in many forms. I'm a passionate paraglider and speed flyer who's always looking for the next mountain to soar from. As an artist I express myself through ceramics, photography, tracks left in the snow and transparent lines through the air. I like to say, I have the gear, Mother Nature just tells me what to use.

favorite OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES:

Paragliding/speed flying, snow and water skiing/boarding/kiting, ski blading, backpacking, whitewater, biking, climbing, disc golf and anything you can do outside!

1 year living in a van while flying parachutes throughout New Zealand. I plan to do this again!
