Profile:

I have 9 years of kayak guiding experience (some years part-time, some years full-time). I've spent most of my days in Clayoquot Sound, with a variety of overnight trips around Vancouver Island. Recently I've enjoyed getting to know the waters along the Sunshine Coast after moving to the area in 2023. These days I try to take on a few overnight trips as an AOG throughout the season. I also am hoping to develop history-focused day tours specifically catered to a few different regions and esp. BGI, Clayoquot Sound, Desolation Sound.
