My mission in life is to create an inclusive and welcoming environment where others can try new things, develop skills and feel confident and comfortable doing so.

I want to have a positive influence on others and help people gain skills in the outdoors. Mental health is very important to me and I think a lot of folks can benefit from being outside and participating in adventure sports.

Often because of certain socio-economic barriers many people cannot participate in adventure sports. My long term goal is to enter a career where I am able to help others gain access to the outdoors and feel welcome in the adventure sport community. The industry is primarily dominated by cis white men and I hope to bring a diverse voice to the community and a more inclusive view. 

I am interested in continuing my education as I believe it will help me further develop my skills.  My goal has always been to help create an inclusive and safe environment for myself and my peers to learn and grow together.
