Born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky, I grew fondly of fresh air and natural spaces early on as a child. When I left for college in Colorado at 18, I never expected to pick up a passion for being in the alpine quite like this. I didn't foresee countless long days sitting on rock ledges, nor diving into the science of a snowpack in my free time. I am currently based out of Jackson, Wyoming finding a balance between having fun in the mountains and working on my future goals with guiding.
