Looking ahead to 2026
As I look toward 2026, I’m energized by what’s ahead and grateful for the path that’s brought me here. This coming year marks a deliberate shift; expanding my work with brands on a freelance level while launching a new outdoor adventure consulting venture built around experience, execution, and authenticity.
At its core, this venture is about helping brands and enthusiasts plan and deliver meaningful mountain adventures, whether that’s product development and testing rides, marketing activations, media-product introductions, or photo and video shoots in demanding environments. It’s also about crafting bucket-list experiences of a lifetime; the kind that challenge people, inspire incredible stories, and leave a lasting mark!
I bring deep experience in logistical and travel planning, from route development and timelines to crew coordination, safety considerations, and contingency planning. I understand what it takes to create content in real conditions; light, weather, terrain, access, and how permits, land use approvals, and local regulations can make or break a project. Those details aren’t footnotes; they’re the foundation of a successful experiential or creative event.
My background in the mountains uniquely positions me to support brands across seasons and disciplines. In winter, that means skiing and snowboarding, snowmobiling, and other cold-weather pursuits where precision and preparation matter most. In warmer months, it’s motorcycles and dirt bikes, mountain bikes, hiking, fishing, camping, and 4x4 off-road exploration. I live these activities, understand the culture around them, and know how to translate real experiences into compelling stories and usable media. In addition, my work in product development and real-world testing adds value for brands looking for authentic evaluations of product performance in the field.
Looking ahead, I’m excited about building thoughtful partnerships, collaborating with brands that value authenticity and working alongside enthusiasts who want to do things the right way. 2026 feels like an open trailhead, and I’m eager to see where it leads!
If you’re a brand looking to develop products, create meaningful content, or plan an unforgettable experience—or an enthusiast dreaming up your next big adventure—I’d love to connect. The future is wide open, and I’m ready to get after it.
