Professional Philosophy
Humans are always on the go, never ceasing to worry about what comes next. Through outdoor recreation, people begin to disconnect from their complex, digital world and just be themselves. Outdoor recreation is about living in the moment and finding our basic selves without the constant pressures of society. Each person thrives on a different feeling; whether it be thrilling, calming, solitude or community, all can be found by participating in various types of leisure. People laugh more, love deeper and live better by interacting with the natural world with a serene mind and open heart.
Professional Goals
To connect people to the natural environment in a meaningful way.
- When in the backcountry, I aim to create a safe environment for participants through good decision-making and proper risk management
- Maintaining my own curiosity regarding natural history so that I can be knowledgeable and answer others inquiries about the environment
- Create experiences which are positive and memorable while leading people outdoors
