I’m an outdoor adventurer and filmmaker who from May 2022 to June 2024, spent 2 years cycling 41,500km around the world. Born in Ottawa, I grew up hiking, cycling, and paddling in Ontario. Moving out to Vancouver for university, I spent most of my spare time outdoors, camping, skiing, hiking, and practicing photography. This passion has now grown to an all encompassing love for the outdoors, and exploring the world.

Fun Facts
- During the early months of the pandemic, I took work as a food delivery bicycle courier, which nearly paid for the entirety of my two year trip around the world.
- I’ve been cycle touring since before I was a teenager, but rediscovered the passion for it after university.
- After the initial spark of an idea of a short bike tour following the end of lockdown, within the span of 36 hours, I’d mapped out a potential 6 year journey around the world.
