My mountain adventures aren't limited to snowy terrains. I've scaled the rugged mountains of Alaska, the mystic peaks of the Himalayas and Nepal, and the dramatic landscapes of the Caucasus Mountains. And yes, I've taken on Mount Rainier multiple times, often rewarding myself with an exhilarating snowboard descent. Closer to home, mountains like Baker and Adams have witnessed my snowboarding exploits.
While the mountains are my primary playground, the rock walls are a close second. I've been rock climbing for over a decade and find solace and challenge in this vertical world. As a proud member of the Seattle Bouldering Project, I continuously push my limits, aiming for greater heights.
