Volunteer at United Way, Salt Lake City Marathon and Salt Lake Bicycle Collective

Giving back to your community is very important to me and I have been able to do that in a few different ways. My personal interest and love for cycling drew me to the outdoors community and allowed me to help others find that same passion. I was able to join the Bicycle Collective and build and restore bikes that were then donated to those without transportation or in need.
