Meet Your Coach
My love for the outdoors started around age 8 when my dad introduced me to camping under the stars. That first spark turned into a lifelong passion for backpacking and exploring remote wilderness.
Based in Laguna Beach, CA, I've hiked countless miles through breathtaking places — including a 280-mile, 23-day trek through the Sierra Nevada with my wife Christy in 2025. I'm beyond excited to share that knowledge with you.
