I’m married to Carolyn, a retired engineer.  She’s way smarter, better looking and stronger.  We have three sons and a daughter.  The two oldest are grown professionals and the two youngest are in college.

I’m 62 and a retired environmental lawyer.  I practiced in Wyoming and Colorado.  I now work part-time as a policy advisor for the state health department, environmental programs.  I practiced in all environmental media, but spent the most time in air quality.

I started mountain biking around the Happy Jack recreation area in Wyoming, after someone stole my road bike.  That remains my favorite place to ride.  I started road biking again after I moved to Colorado,  I love riding trails and roads, dirt or paved.

We bought a home near Dolores in 2021 following many years of exploring the Rocky Mountain region, looking for our favorite retirement spot.  Good skiing and mountain biking- trails and culture, as well as ready access to the prettiest desert and mountains in the region settled it for us. 

I have an insatiable sweet tooth, and I am particularly fond of Belgian beers, Colorado malt whiskies and good scotch.

Originally from Phoenix, AZ but has now lived in Dolores for the last 1/2 decade and has no plans on leaving this heaven on earth. 

Head Coach with High Desert Devo. I work as a ski, snowboard, and mountain bike instructor at the Telluride Ski Resort and carry a Children’s Specialist 1 certification through PSIA/AASI. I’m also working on my Mountain Bike level 1 Cert through PIMBA. I also work as a live even announcer, handling microphone duties at events like the Iron Horse Classic, Salt Lake City Marathon, and The Cactus Cup as well as local events like the 12 Hours of Mesa Verde and Dolores River Fest. 

As someone who loves teaching, is a Father of 2, and, who loves outdoor sports, getting to coach kids on bikes in the local community is not only rewarding but a ton of fun. I started mountain biking in the early 90’s and continue to progress in my riding every year. I love connecting with my fellow Montezuma county residents as well as visitors to this special piece of the southwest. I also enjoy river rafting and spending time with my kids going on adventures. If you catch me out and about, don’t hesitate to say hello and strike up a conversation!
