About

Don’t ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive, and go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.”

I have been writing since I was seven years old and running for almost as long. I am an editor for REI, a former editor at Trail Runner magazine, and the author of Beer Hiking Colorado.

My writing has also appeared in Uncommon Path, Outdoors NW, Paste, Outside Online, Red Bull Adventure, the REI Co-op Journal, iRunFar, RootsRated, Gear Institute, Run the Alps, and more. Keep in touch by subscribing to my Substack @runnerswhowrite.

When I’m not storytelling, I can be found spending time with my family, running or hiking in the mountains, doing yoga, swimming at my local Y, reading books, journaling, or striking up enthusiastic conversation with strangers.
