Where did you get your start in outdoor education?
I started as a hiking guide at Canyon Ranch Health resort in Tucson, AZ. It was a fun job where I lead people on day hikes in the Rincon and Santa Catalina mountains. That was all it took, I quit my finance job at a mutual fund company and went to pursue outdoor education.
What is your favorite class to teach?
Anything that involves singing like a rock star!
Are you an analyst/architect, driver, relationship master, or spontaneous motivator?
Relationship master.
