Bio: I'm from Minnesota and began climbing when I was 16. I've always been fascinated with the mountains and climbed Disappointment Clever on Mt. Rainier when I was 18 in 2009. Completed my SPI course in 2011 and taught kids climbing at a summer camp. In 2014 I climbed Emmons Glacier on Mt. Rainier. 2015 I spent eight months guiding for Adventure Access in western China on the Tibetan plateau. Attempted Mt. Xiao Xue Bao Ding (5455m). In 2017 began consulting for a climbing gym and developed dozens of sport climbing routes in Nalchik, Russia. While living there I climbed Mt. Elbrus three times and summited twice(2018 and 2020), guiding friends two of the three times.
