I started climbing in 1999 and skimo racing in 2013. Training resources were sparse, especially for skimo. I had to learn from more established sports and apply what I could. Now I'm combining the best ideas from the best coaches into Arrowhead Endurance.

In 1999, I left a yellow-brick-road future and moved into a Honda Civic so I could climb full-time. Fourteen years later, I started skimo racing. I was a sponsored alpine climber in the 2000s, a member of the Canadian National Skimo Team in the 2010s, and started coaching in 2019. Now I'm writing it all down in Arrowhead Endurance.
