Whitewater kayaking

I've been whitewater kayaking since 2005. I seriously whitewater kayaked and rafted since 2011. I started professionally guiding whitewater in 2017. Since that time I've had many jobs and titles doing either or both for businesses. I received my ACA Whitewater Kayak Instructor IV certification in 2019. I've lead(step below manage) whitewater rafting trips from class III to IV and guided on class V whitewater. 

Additional Information

Volunteer Work - In the summer of 2014 I was a camp councilor for a mathematics, computer science, and outdoor recreation camp. The camp was created by John Peterson who previously taught at Yale through Western State Colorado University. We taught kids how to salt and encrypt code, taught gaming programming, and took them whitewater boating.
