How do I know?
I love helping other people learn more about their outside adventure life by sharing what I’ve discovered. I am a New England native, living most of my life in beautiful Maine (currently) and New Hampshire and previously served my time in Connecticut and Massachusetts. Most of my learning happens right here in the Whites, some good trips out west, and lots of time in Europe, especially the French Alps.
I work part-time as a ski instructor at Sunday River and as a Summit Hiker Shuttle Driver on the Mount Washington Auto Road. At Gould Academy in Bethel, Maine, I was Head Coach of the Winter Outing Club (a daily winter sport) and Head Coach of the Road Bike Racing Team, and I led day-hiking trips, overnights, and 9-day winter backpacking trips in the White Mountains and the Mahoosuc Mountains.
The content on MountWashingtonWorld is inspired by the questions I am most-often asked and conversations we most often have during my work.
So whether you’re gearing up for your next adventure, on the hunt for the perfect gear, or just need a little inspiration, I’m here to help! If you can’t find what you’re looking for on this site, feel free to drop me an email or catch me at work!
