I have been the Alumni Advisor at the patrol, region, division and national levels. I’m originally from Spokane Washington and currently live in Eugene Oregon. I joined the National Ski Patrol (NSP) as a Nordic patroller with the Willamette Backcountry Ski Patrol (WBSP) in 1993. I continue to spend time as our patrol advisor as well as an advocate for NSP Alumni. I consider the National Alumni Manual my major alumni accomplishment. Please check out the manual on the nsp.org website. When I’m not enjoying the many adventures of the US Forest Service and NSP I enjoy reading, gardening, cycling, spending time with family and visiting our wonderful National Parks.
