What, who or how and when did you first get involved with the Iditarod?

First became involved with the Iditarod in 2019 and got the chance to go out on the trail the first year, and went to Iditarod Checkpoint and had a great time.

What is your Why? Why are you here TODAY and involved with the Iditarod?

I’m here today and involved with Iditarod because I love the people and the availability to hang out with dogs and get to see rural Alaska.

Tell me about just one of your most memorable Iditarod experiences:

I guess one of the most memorable Iditarod experiences was the first year, and how serendipitous it was to get to go out on the trail the first year.

What in life do you know for sure?

What I know for sure in life is Alaska is my home, and the people here are some of the best people I’ve ever been around.
