When I’m not coding or building things, you can usually find me throwing discs, climbing rocks, or sliding down mountains!* 🏃♂️🧗♂️🏂
Rock Climbing
I started climbing at Mount Mendota and spent a few months climbing at BlocHaven while in South Carolina (their coffee shop is amazing btw). These days you can find me at Boulders working on v3-4s and pretending I know what beta means.
Snowboarding
I started riding with Hoofers in college. Made it out to Winter Park and Copper Mountain a few times, where I discovered that Colorado’s “green” runs are Wisconsin’s “black diamonds” (who knew?).
When it’s not snowing, I teach sailing at Hoofers. Nothing beats a summer day on Lake Mendota!
Ultimate Frisbee
This is where most of my bruises come from! I started playing at Madison West HS, where I learned that running is more fun when you’re chasing plastic.
Played for the Wisconsin Hodags in college - some of my best memories are from tournaments with those folks. Was honored to be nominated for the Callahan Award in 2023.
These days I play for the Madison Radicals, where I get to dive around in front of actual fans! Still can’t believe people pay to watch us throw frisbees around.
*Currently accepting suggestions for more hobbies that involve throwing myself through the air 🚀
