My Story
Growing up in Chehalis, Washington, the outdoors has always been an important part of my life. From playing soccer to spending countless hours exploring the woods as a child, I developed a deep appreciation for nature from an early age.
About two years ago, I discovered my passion for backpacking, a journey that not only fueled my love for adventure but also inspired me to create a guide service with a unique focus. Rather than simply emphasizing the destination, my mission is to celebrate and enhance the experience of backpacking itself.
At the core of my approach are the principles of Leave No Trace and a strong commitment to trail conservation. By teaching and practicing responsible outdoor ethics, I aim to help preserve our trails and natural spaces for future generations to enjoy.
Through my guide service, I hope to share the transformative power of backpacking while fostering a deeper connection to the wilderness and a lasting respect for the environment.
