Fun facts

Where are you originally from?

I grew up in Iowa and moved to Durango, Colorado about 10 years ago, and I haven't looked back.

What are your favorite activities to do in The Rockies?

Mountain biking and paddle boarding is my reset button. If I'm not painting, I'm probably on a trail somewhere in the San Juans. I also love being in the backcountry, I spent years as a wilderness guide, so the outdoors is where I'm most at home.
