About Me

I’ve worn a few hats in this life—some earned, some chosen—but all have pointed me toward a deeper reverence for the wild places that make this world worth exploring. These days, I walk a path shaped by experience, guided by curiosity, and grounded in a profound respect for the earth and its stories.

🩺 Disciplined by Service – Years spent in high-stakes environments taught me the value of resilience, precision, and presence. Whether navigating chaos or calm, I’ve learned that showing up—fully and with intention—is what matters most.

🥃 Seeker of the Spirit in Spirits – There’s a quiet poetry in a well-aged single malt. I’m drawn to the distilleries tucked into misty glens, where craftsmanship meets tradition and every dram carries the weight of place. It’s never just about the drink—it’s about the land, the lore, and the people who shape it.

🌲 Steward of the Wild – Public lands are more than scenic backdrops—they are sacred, living spaces that deserve our protection. I believe in keeping them wild, accessible, and thriving for those who come after us. Advocacy, awareness, and action are the tools I carry.

✈️ Rooted in the Journey – Some places call to us not because they are new, but because they are known. Scotland is one such place. Its highlands echo with ancestral memory, its landscapes etched with resilience. Walking its hills feels less like travel and more like return. In every journey, I seek not just to see, but to remember.

I don’t claim a single home—I belong to the ridgelines, the coastlines, the quiet trails and roaring rivers. The world is vast, and I’m here to listen to what it has to say.
