About me

That’s me, about to head up Mount Rinjani on the island of Lombok in Indonesia.
For eight years, I worked as a reporter, photographer and editor of the Revelstoke Review, a community newspaper and website in a beautiful mountain town in the heart of southern British Columbia. Over that time, I developed a thirst for exploring the mountains, whether it’s on skis, by bike or on my feet.
Here, you will find stories and photographs of my trips and adventures. In the fall of 2017, I left Revelstoke and flew to South America to ride my bicycle through the Andes. Through six months of travel, I fell in love with bikepacking. This website captures stories from that adventure and many more since.
I am currently employed as the Executive Director of the Revelstoke Cycling Association, Managing Editor of The Avalanche Journal for the Canadian Avalanche Association, and Grant Writer for Revelstoke Search & Rescue.
