About Me:: My buddies and I started Venture Expeditions in 2002 with a bike trip across the United States. We are still at it. Currently, I'm working full time for Venture. I have a beautiful wife and 5 month old daughter.

Birthday:: June 9, 1980

Why I'm involved in Venture Expeditions:: I like the idea that we can help people using our passion for adventure travel. I believe this is what I'm supposed to do with my life. It is cool to see peoples lives changed. Not just the people we are benefiting with monetary support and service, but also our hikers, riders, runners, etc...
