I’m originally from Sitka, Alaska, and grew up in a commercial fishing family spending summers from year 10 to 21 commercially fishing for salmon. I was introduced to fly fishing by my father during a bone fishing trip to Belize in the 90s – talk about a blast!
For the past decade fishing has taken a back seat to school and career, but with my recent move to Santa Cruz I’m picking up the rod again and am excited to shake off the rust and get back into the sport!
I’m coming to the board after clicking a box on the new member form in March raising my hand to help. I believe deeply in giving back and being part of the SC fly fishing organization is a great way to give back, promote a great sport, and continue expand my SC community.
Fun fact:
– I took a sabbatical in 2019 and spent the year traveling the world, did a fair bit of fishing too!

I grew up on a flower farm in Colorado and spent many days worm-fishing with my family. The first time I saw someone fly fishing, I didn’t know what it was, I just knew it was magical. Came to California to attend UC Berkeley in Computer Science and later Dartmouth for an MBA. Spent a lot of years in Silicon Valley working in software marketing and then at my family’s flower business. My wife, Eva, and I are now empty-nesters in Watsonville where I do a little consulting, but mainly try to figure out how to catch local fish. I look forward to fishing with club members and helping the SCFF club where I can.
