Biography: I grew up in the south east before moving to Colorado. Once in the mountains I soon found myself missing the beach and surfing and discovered kayaking was the perfect fit. After several years of traveling and paddling, I was working as a safety kayaker for a local raft company and paddling on Dagger's white water team. 12 years later I am still paddling all over and am the brand manager for Dagger Kayaks. I love all types of kayaking but find myself on rivers more then anything else. Paddling is a true escape from the world. Big drops, small boofs, play, touring, whatever. Kayaking is just plain fun!! I have changed sports over the years but paddling will always be in my blood.

AW Testimonial: I support AW because they make it possible for me to do what I love. Without rivers there would be no white water. AW is working around the clock to ensure the health, access and protection of our nations rivers. They keep paddlers informed and aware of current issues that will affect our future paddling endevours.
