Happy Living Content Sherpa
I live in Missoula, MT but my heart will always be in the Rockies of Colorado. Prior to moving to Missoula, I have spent the last 5 years in Oregon, where I’ve studied wilderness leadership, got my puppy dog (Yampa – a 4-year-old, 85 pound, adorable Chesapeake Labradoodle), met the woman of my dreams and until recently managed a local kayak shop.
The last 6 years, I have fallen in love with the outdoors (spending well over 100 days in the backcountry), found a healthy pursuit for adventure (including kayaking over a ~45-foot waterfall, on purpose), and found the joy I get from instructing and guiding others (I am a certified white-water kayak and stand-up paddle board instructor, and lead corporate team building events outdoors).
As the content manager for Happy Living, my mission is to peruse the internet and life for inspiration and tools for living a happy life!
