In 1999, I left a yellow-brick-road future and moved into a Honda Civic so I could climb full-time. Fifteen years later, I started skimo racing. I was a sponsored alpine climber in the 2000s, a member of the Canadian National Skimo Team in the 2010s, and a coach at Uphill Athlete starting in 2019. Now I'm sharing what I've learned through Arrowhead Endurance.
