I started paddling in 1997 with whitewater kayaking and commercial raft guiding. I raced competitively with the U.S Whitewater Raft Team for 10 years. I eventually branched out to OC and dragon boat racing and during COVID learned how much I could do with an OC1 and a speed coach. Lately I helped start the Dillon Outrigger Canoe Club at our lake here locally. I reached out to Tek for help with off season training, managing data for more effective training and hoping to write programming for myself and our club.
My goal is to keep shaving seconds and try my hand at V1 racing at some point and to keep exploring more of the great venues there are for a variety of paddle racing.
