My passion for whitewater hit late but hard in 1997, since then I’ve been fortunate enough to make many friends on the river and spend time in some of the most amazing places on the planet because of paddling.

I originally joined AW to get a discount on my first boat but since then I’ve been consistently impressed by their efforts and accomplishments in river preservation. Unfortunately, I’ve also seen some fabulous places either threatened or destroyed by development or misguided “river restoration” work. Locally in Vermont I got involved trying to keep the bulldozers from channelizing everything in sight after Hurricane Irene last year and also worked with AW to add a Northeast stewardship position in memory of my friend Boyce Greer.

As a mostly retired Family Practice doc with grown children and lots of energy I look forward to trying to do my part as a board member to help AW succeed in their mission.

Join AW and support river stewardship nationwide!
