5 years
Paragon's first split-board guide
Started snowboarding at the age of 15 on a small resort in Galena, IL
Traveled to Japan, Norway, British Columbia, and Chile to experience other winter climates. Also have been split-boarding in Wyoming and Washington
Moved to Colorado in 2017 and knew I would be pursuing split-boarding as I wanted to experience what the backcountry could offer in outdoor recreation.
Traveled through Colorado, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico on multi week overland jeep trips mountain biking on some of the best trails in the world,
Outside of working in a datacenter full-time I’m taking on work with Paragon including day trips, intro to split-boarding, and hut trips.
Fun Facts: First actual mountain I ever truly experienced snowboarding on was in Myoko, Japan with four feet of powder. I have Split-boarded multiple 14ers and 13rs including Quandary, Elbert, Grays, Torreys, Helen, Bard, Citadel, and Atlantic.
