I am an avid thru-hiker and amateur outdoor endurance athlete based in Southern Appalachia. The rainforests and burly, aggressive waterfalls in Western North Carolina make for an adventurer's dream playground.

Diving cliffs, ridgeline ultras, backcountry exploration, and endless photogenic moments of the Blue Ridge Mountains can make for such an amazing outdoor destination, but it's a lot to navigate sometimes. I like to help with that through my writing and guiding, and occasionally photography.
