“Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.”   – Helen Keller
I am deeply committed to living a fulfilling life and achieving my full potential, driven by an entrepreneurial spirit that pushes me to explore, ideate and innovate. I am a father of four wonderful children that anybody would brag about, taking great pride in their achievements.Â
I lead an active lifestyle and place significant emphasis on continuing to learn and making new adventures. When something captures my interest, I devote myself entirely. My passion for the outdoors keeps me engaged in activities are fun and exciting.
In addition to being a ski instructor, I travel extensively to ski both on-piste and in the backcountry, having visited most major and many smaller areas nationally and internationally. One of my personal goals for 2025 is to join the Educational Staff for both the PSIA Rocky Mountain and Central divisions, allowing me to travel and teach more extensively. To maintain peak physical condition in the off-season, I engage in weightlifting, rollerblading, bicycling, and regular yoga sessions.
Mentally, I keep sharp by hosting a weekly webinar where I teach other instructors to identify and analyze movement patterns in clients, enhancing our effectiveness as instructors. I record these sessions and share them online to reach a broader audience. Additionally, I am currently authoring a book on Movement Analysis in Alpine Skiing.
Professionally, I use photography as a way to highlight product features and help with social media and for print and digital environments. I particularly like to take photos using tradespeople on job sites showing our products in use. Here are some examples of photos of which I am proud.
Personally, I also pursue landscape photography, traveling to capture stunning scenes throughout the year. I have a particular fondness for the autumn colors in Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana. I prefer landscape photography because it connects me with the natural beauty of the outdoors. Here are some examples of my work that adorn the walls of my home.
