About me
I love playing outside and do my best not to be caught inside for too long. I love skiing, particularly backcountry pow skiing! When I’m not rowing boats, you’ll find me riding my mountain bike, surfing, or sliding around on snow.
The Best Part of My Job
Falling asleep on a boat under that big Idaho sky, listening to the river, and looking at the stars.
How I found OARS
I started guiding in college and thought it would be a more temporary pursuit, but I’ve been completely captivated. Working for OARS has brought so much love into my life.
My Favorite Spot on the River/Outdoors
Any hike up above the river that gives you a whole different perspective of the river canyon.
Favorite River Tradition
Glitter on big rapid days.
I Can’t Live Without
Always bring the costume bag!
My Fun Fact
I get to guide with my sister, which is pretty much the coolest thing ever!
