About Me
Hello! My name is Brian, and I am happy to be a resident and native of Colorado. I was born and raised in Grand Junction, graduated from Grand Junction High School, and moved to Greeley for university. In 2007, I graduated from the University of Northern Colorado with a bachelor's degree in bassoon performance. I then moved to Eugene, Oregon to begin working toward a graduate degree, but soon transferred back to UNC where I graduated with a Master's in Music Education in 2010.
Although I spent a fair amount of time outdoors, I was not truly bitten by the mountain bug until I summited Grays Peak on a whim on June 11, 2006. Cresting out on the continental divide turned out to be the start of it all. I quickly began hiking mountains often and soon found myself scrambling up more sporting routes. Scrambling led slowly into technical climbing, and I sorted out "the ropes" mostly in the Flatirons.
Today, I live with my beautiful wife in Longmont where we are both music educators. I continue to pursue classic mountains and routes while trying to stay safe.
