Relocating from the East Coast in 1990, drawn by the promise of an endless summer of surfing, I’ve called San Diego home.

My passion for the ocean and nature began in my early teens with summers spent seaside and winters hiking with my uncle.

I earned a BA in Anthropology leading to a 20-year career in Archaeology.

This work expanded my love for nature, enriching my understanding and curiosity with insights into Geology, Biology, Paleontology, and Native American life.

In my early thirties, I discovered the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range and I've been hiking and exploring there ever since.

I find spending time in nature essential for health and well-being, whether it's a day hike or camping beside a secluded lake at 11,000 feet.

It would be a pleasure to share the knowledge I’ve gathered. Book a tour today
