I started rock-climbing and rappelling since 1989 and have been Professionally guiding since 1991. I have taken many outdoor education classes and had plenty other outdoor experiences throughout my life. I have planned and executed independent and guided canyoneering and rock climbing trips throughout the United States, Europe and the Middle East. In addition to extensive technical training, I was been a climbing coach, a facilitator for rope courses, team building and leadership programming and worked on the 2 season TV show Dog Eat Dog. I've worked with families and children promoting a love for adventure actives safely in the outdoors. In the last 20 years I have been involved in local canyoneering clubs and meet ups in the Los Angeles area, and most recently (since 2022) have been teaching the Uber Adventures Los Angeles L! Canyoneering classes.
