Biography

I’ve been immersed in climbing for nearly my entire life. This sport has shown me parts of the world I never would have seen along with introducing me to some of the nicest and most interesting people I know. I’ve learned how suffer, and work hard for something. Climbing brought me to fall in love with photography and film, a new passion for me that pairs well with adventure.
