Doctor of Physical Therapy - In 2014 I made plans to quit my corporate career and change my work life in two ways.

1) To find a job where I could directly help others.

2) To work only part of the year, so I can hike/kayak/travel the rest. That dream came true in April 2021.

Full Comfort Ultralight Hiker - I show it’s possible to have a 7lbs base pack weight, but still have large tents, wide sleeping pads, warm quilts, extra clothes, gas stoves, full rain gear and framed backpacks.

Travel Videos - I never liked making trail videos until I came across Kraig Adams and Erik Normark. I am quickly learning how to make a decent hiking video.
