Interests
I am an avid backcountry splitboarder. Spark R and D are the bindings I have used for over 10 years. I have worked in sports, in news, in live television as well as news magazine shows as well as reality television, but I want to tell stories about the backcountry, about hiking and kayaking, about surfing about participating in nature and I have a feeling I can tell the type of stories you want to tell.
