It was then I got hooked. My brother and I used to build rails and log jams out of any scrap metal or wood my dad would give us. I look back now at some of the stuff we build and things we tried and am amazed that I’m still standing.

I got heavy into snowboarding around 2004 and the next year I moved down to SLC, UT to do the whole school thing. I overloaded my classes in the summer and fall so that during the winter quarter I could just focus on riding. The first year in SLC I rode Brighton and learned what real kickers and real rails were. I can’t tell you how many times I got broke off…

The following years I found a good crew and we rode Brighton, Snowbird, Park City and The Canyons. The Bird and video parts of MFM is what made me realize I love big mountain riding and busting cab 3’s off the natty stuff. The Canyons and Steve Duke’s pure ingenuity helped me excel in park riding.

Over the years I’ve competed in numerous competitions and am learning what it takes to make it to the final round and bring home the goods. Now I just gotta make a name for myself…

On the job side of life, I'm the Junior System Administrator for the Sundance Institute. Uh, yeah, computer stuff... And yet I don't own a video gaming system to my name and never will. I'd rather be outside ripping pow lines, learning new tricks or skatin'.
