BACKGROUND:
I have been paddling since I was very young. My father would take me and my brother on downriver trips in our canoe. I started whitewater kayaking 5 years ago. I am a confident class 4 boater. I have been paddleboarding for 2 years now in flat and whitewater class 3/4 conditions. I have been paddling competitively for 2 years. The past 2 years have been dedicated to paddleboarding after I began managing the Tri Cities Stand Up Paddleboard store and got hooked on paddleboarding. My goal is to continue to push the sports limit in whitewater and be competitive with the elite level in flat water. I have enjoyed sharing my skills with over 500 people during lessons and demos. I want to be able to bring the best products to my Paddling community.
