Personal info:

I love running new rivers, showing off the Upper Peninsula, and running old rivers. Anything that gets me outside. To me there is nothing more satisfying than heading to a new river with Team UP and working our way down it. Boat scouting what we can, setting up safety where we need it and scouting major drops, and basically testing and improving upon the skills we have.
