Greetings friends. Here is a little bit about me. I’ve been kayaking since I very first got my driver’s liscense and a Kent Ford instructional video in my hot little hands. I came up testing my adolescent sense of invincibility on the ice-laden creeks of Northern Wisconsin and Minnesota in a Riot Disco I’d bought with saved dishwashing wages. I’ve since sampled the creeks of the SE, worked as an instructor in the PNW, taught swiftwater rescue to troubled adolescents, earned checks as a safety kayaker in Costa Rica, and scared myself pretty good a couple of times along the way. I now live in Missoula, MT pursuing a career of sorts in emergency and wilderness medicine. 10 years after I hit my first roll in that Disco, I am still stoked to be with Riot, paddling my favorite boats out there in my favorite places in the world. See you on the river!
