Hometown: The Warrior River, The Green River and recently the Colorado

Sponsors: Teva, Immersion Research, Shred Ready

Favorite River: I have about ten of them!

Biography: I grew up in Alabama; on the Mulberry Fork of the Black Warrior River. Learned to kayak while raft guiding on the Ocoee in 1996. Then I went college in Brevard, North Carolina where I got my creek wings on the Narrows section of the Green river. After college I started traveling and kayaking. I was lucky enough to be selected as a probe for Tdub and this has led to many excellent adventures on incredible rivers in exotic locations. I have recently moved to New Castle, Colorado where my wife, Polly, just gave birth to our first son, Kelly Rivers Hilleke. I look forward to taking him to the Stikine as soon as he is a little older.

Results: won the Green Race a few times

AW Testimonial: I feel that mountaineers are keepers of the Peaks; Surfers are keepers of the Coast; Climbers to the rock and bikers to the trails. So we as paddlers, are the keepers of the rivers. We need an organized voice that can be heard in todays world of power company procedures and government regulations. AW is that voice.
