Biography
I try to move, every single day. Sometimes that means a walk with my kids before getting on a flight. Sometimes that means winning a comp. Sometimes that means running laps on familiar routes in the evening’s last glow. Sometimes getting way out there on a new route. I believe movement gets rid of all the bullshit. Yes, I’ve climbed some things, flown paragliders really far, and won a lot of comps, but it’s that daily pursuit of movement, of trying, of doing my best with the day that matters to me. And sharing my sports with partners, people, teaching, being taught, and learning. I try to move every day in some way that I like, and it’s that enjoyment of movement, more than talent or a work ethic or anything else, that has brought me any success I’ve had athletically. It also chills me the fuck out and allows me to be a decent human with the people who matter to me in life: Family, friends, and the outdoor community.
ATHLETE MENTORSHIP INITATIVE
The SCARPA Athlete Mentorship Initiative presented by Mountain Hardwear has been created to connect and engage
the SCARPA and Mountain Hardwear Athlete teams with accomplished athletes from historically marginalized
communities aspiring to take their sport or career to the next level. The mission of this program is to connect
mentors with mentees focused on the sports we serve to provide participants with opportunities for personal,
athletic and career development with the goal of helping to create a more inclusive and diverse community of
athletes.
