Raised along the rugged coast of Maine, I cultivated a profound appreciation for the great outdoors from an early age. Fuelled by a passion for snowboarding, I ventured to Colorado straight out of high school, immersing myself in the majestic Rocky Mountains while pursuing studies in Outdoor Education at Colorado Mountain College.
After years of mountain living and snow-chasing adventures, the lure of the ocean beckoned me back. Settling in San Diego, I found my calling as an ocean kayak guide, harnessing the energy of the Pacific to guide others through its mesmerizing waters. Yet, the whisper of the waves ultimately led me to the pristine shores of Kauai, Hawaii.
For the past four years, Kauai has been my sanctuary, where I've embraced a vibrant lifestyle in harmony with the island's enchanting beauty. Currently, I find fulfillment working aboard sailing catamarans along the breathtaking Na Pali Coast, perpetually captivated by the dance of wind and sea.
Both on and off the water, I remain an avid student of nature, forever in awe of its boundless wonders. Whether I'm riding the waves, navigating hiking trails, or simply basking in the sun-kissed sands, every moment enriches my understanding of the elements that surround me.
In my leisure time, you'll often find me exploring local farmers markets, savoring the bounty of fresh, organic produce, strumming melodies on my guitar, or channeling inspiration into my artistic endeavors.
