Currently thru hiking the Pacific Crest Trail.

What's at the top of your bucket list?
At least 10 more thru-hikes.

Tell us about your dream trip.
If I could walk forever and not have to suffer the physical pain of thru-hiking, that would be rad.

What's your favorite thing about Next Adventure?
Without Next Adventure, I wouldn’t have made it so far along the PCT. I love that they are active in community events/fundraisers and it’s a genuine, Oregon-grown company.

What's your favorite product at Next Adventure?
I LOVE my jetboil. Without it, I couldn’t eat pounds of ramen each week.

Tell us a little more about yourself!
I’m a photographer and along my PCT hike I’ve created a photo project called Hiker Trash Vogue. It’s an editorial style photo project featuring portraits of long distance hikers pretending to be high fashion models. In reality, it’s just a bunch of smelly, unshowered people laying in dirt and being ridiculous.

I grew up in Nor Cal and spent a lot of my childhood outdoors with my Dad and two brothers. I’ve grown to appreciate it more and more as I get older and hiking the PCT has made me gain a tremendous respect for those who work so hard to make it accessible for others.

Tell us a fun fact about yourself.
I lost an 8th grade spelling bee for misspelling “illiterate”. I can spell it now.
