A native of Colorado, I embarked on my fishing journey at the tender age of 5. My fly-tying expertise is mainly self-taught, relying on instructional videos, tapes, and books to hone my craft. Over the years, I've explored the waters of Colorado extensively, covering more than 75% of its aquatic terrain and venturing beyond its borders.

In my current pursuits, fly tying and fishing have risen to the forefront as my foremost passions. My creative energies find expression in crafting flies that emulate the lifelike appearance of stoneflies, a particular niche that intrigues me. Through my ongoing dedication to fly tying and my love for fishing, I continue to immerse myself in the beauty and challenges nature's waters offer.
