Why you love to climb and what Zero Gravity means to you:

• Climbing is a time when I get to have fun and release stress. I enjoy the opportunity to challenge myself both physically and mentally, in competition or on a project. I also love the climbing community, at Touchstone and across the world. I have made priceless friendships and memories through climbing and the competitions I have attended. A good portion of those friendships consists of the members on Zero Gravity. Zero Gravity has been a place where I can train with the best and be part of a truly supportive community. I am grateful for the experiences I've had climbing and while on the team.

 

Favorite place to climb/travel:

• I have no specific place I love to climb or travel, but I love both in general. I'm always open to take a trip or go on an adventure someplace new, whether it be climbing or just exploring the area. I do have to say, I really have enjoyed all the trips I have taken to Europe, especially my climbing trip to Céüse.
