At 27 years old I have more adventures under my belt then most have in a lifetime. Being home schooled allowed me the time and freedom needed to pursue my passion for dog mushing. As time-demanding as mushing is, I skillfully balanced the hours spent with my dogs with the hours spent in the books, allowing me to successfully graduate with a 4.0 g.p.a. From the age of thirteen I have worked for my family's business doing construction, home maintenance and remodeling in order to support my love of mushing. Working with my father in the off-season has become especially important to me as my hobby turned into a profession requiring me to leave home each winter. In addition to dog sledding, some of my other loves include playing drums, riding and tinkering with my motorcycle, working on my live-in tree house,and enjoying God's great playground.
