Paddler History:  Started about 6 or 7 years ago. Got lucky and paddled for Pyranha as a local paddler and got some free boats for a while and got people in them. I was/still am a Bliss-stick Demo center. I was the BSU Kayak Club President for the last 3 years of my schooling.

Why I Paddle: I paddle because it takes me away from the home life, from the work life, and gets me out in nature. I paddle because it is a lifestyle that I enjoy and that has taken hold of me. I paddle because I love exploring new things. I paddle because I love the sound of what’s just around the corner and the feeling that I get in my gut because of those sounds. I don’t paddle for anyone else. I don’t feel that I have to paddle so many days on the North Fork because I have something to prove to everyone around me or myself. I know what I have done, what I am capable of, what I want to do. I paddle for the fun of it, for the joy of it. I am a kayaker. That is what I am, I cannot help that. It burns too deep at this time of my life. I am not a creeker, I am not a playboater, I am strictly a paddler that loves it all.
