I’m an adventure racer, father, husband, chef and avid mountain biker. I have been a racer for over 20 years and love how adventure racing has allowed me to grow as an athlete and a person. I’m excited to be a part of the Giant family of ambassadors and hope to bring more people into the sport of adventure racing.
