Skiing has been a part of my life since I was very young, and it remains one of my greatest passions, especially during the winter months. Over the years, I've honed my skills on the slopes and have had the privilege of working as a ski coach, guiding aspiring Alpine racing athletes toward their goals. My extensive experience has not only made me a skilled skier but also deepened my love for the sport. Skiing challenges me, fuels my love for the outdoors, and provides an opportunity to inspire others to push their limits. 

Thru-hiking has become a significant adventure in my life, allowing me to connect deeply with nature and challenge my endurance. I've completed several thru-hikes over 50 miles, including the Uinta Highline Trail and the High Sierra Trail. These journeys have tested my limits, both physically and mentally, while offering breathtaking experiences that only the wilderness can provide. Thru-hiking isn't just about reaching the destination; it's about embracing the journey, finding peace in the solitude of the trails, and continuously pushing myself to explore what lies beyond the next ridge. 

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has become a significant part of my life over the past two years. Recently promoted to a blue belt, I find immense joy not only in the physical and mental challenges it presents but also in the vibrant community that comes with it. Training in Jiu Jitsu has improved my health, sharpened my self-defense skills, and connected me with like-minded individuals who share the same dedication. My goal is to continue growing in this art, with the ultimate aim of achieving a black belt one day. Jiu Jitsu is more than just a hobby for me; it's a lifelong pursuit of excellence and personal growth.
