Born and raised in Seattle, I grew up riding my bike along the pathways that weave through the city’s neighborhoods and along the waterfront. These are some of my fondest childhood memories, zipping through the city with my family and friends. I’m grateful to have grown up in such a bikeable city, and an enthusiasm for the outdoors is something that’s stuck with me through the various chapters of my life.

I moved to Idaho about ten years ago, and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed exploring this state! I’m often at art shows, local events, or hiking. From my prior life as an aircraft mechanic, I know that the world of metal and tools can be daunting at first, which is why I think that BBP creates an amazing environment for learning! In my free time, I like drawing faces, reading dystopian novels, salsa dancing, or discovering a new side quest.
