A Colorado native, professional mountain guide, and adventure photographer passionate about exploring and sharing the wildest corners of the world.

With over a decade of experience in outdoor leadership, risk management, and backcountry guiding, I thrive in high alpine environments where technical skill and thoughtful decision-making are essential.
As an AMGA Apprentice Alpine & Rock Guide, AIARE Instructor, and Pro 1 Avalanche professional, and Wilderness First Responder I’ve guided and climbed across the Rocky Mountains and the deserts of the American West, from the granite walls of Colorado and the deep canyons of Moab to remote alpine peaks like Mount Kenya. My guiding philosophy blends education, mentorship, and safety, creating experiences that challenge clients while deepening their connection to the mountains.
Beyond guiding, I bring my adventures to life through photography and storytelling. My work captures the raw beauty of towering peaks, sweeping ridgelines, and the quiet moments in between. Each image reflects the same precision and creativity I apply to route-finding, whether documenting a technical climb, a dawn splitboard mission, or the fleeting light of an alpine sunset.
From the Sawatch and Sangre de Cristo ranges to far-off summits around the globe, I’m dedicated to sharing the mountain experience, guiding, teaching, and inspiring others to explore with respect, courage, and curiosity.
