How long have you been pulling down?
8 years
Any info you want to share about yourself, your hobbies,
your spouse, or significant other, what you do in the off-season,
etc?
Off-season, there is no off-season! Well I guess year around I
climb, nearly everything I can grasp my mittens on. But when I
am not climbing I am often snowboarding, shooting, video, photography,
sculpting, graphic design, causing trouble for those who know me
well!. The ladies, no need to worry there i got that taken care
of. Winter months you can catch me in Boulder hanging out at the
Sundown Salon shooting pool or vast parties in Boulder.
Any pets?
Yeah, I have a miniature schnauzer. Real thorough breed killer.
Any results or highlights you want to tell us about?
Results like comps? Umm, lots placing from 3rd to 1st place over
the years. Most recent was a climbing comp in Aspen last winter
in which I placed 1st.
What's your best moment so far in climbing or bouldering?
Everytime I top-out a 4 or 5-star boulder problem. Or getting extra
stout skipping clips or running out! Sometimes clip anchors.
What drives you to climb or boulder?
Super solid static feeling I get or floating through moves.
What are your goals in climbing or bouldering?
I climb on as much rad rock as I can. Who doesn't like to push
themselves to the next level? I know I do.
Who has been an idol or a mentor for you in climbing or
bouldering?
God, I don't know. Anyone who is fun to chill with or pushes me.
Mainly my bros.
What's your favorite type of climb or problem?
Any pockets, slopers, tufas, incut crimps I can get my sausages
behind, including rad swirls in the rock, blank rock with only
one obvious climb and meadow boulders.
If you could be anywhere pulling down on rock right now,
where would you be?
Rifle, Joes Valley, Swissco, RMNP, Evans and The Poudre.
Any weaknesses?
Being 5'4" and mini hulkster.
If you could be any super hero, who would you be?
The Invisable Man. You know why. I don't have to answer that one.
