Ambassador

MTB Guatemala - Western US Ambassador
I ride with MTB Guatemala when I am in Guatemala and when I’m not I give some presentations at bike shops in the mountain west. If you’re considering a MTB trip abroad, take a look at what Brendan James has put together, Mayan culture + mountains + bikes.

The Integral Heart Foundation - Athlete Fundraiser
While on global expedition in 2018 I raised funds for a grade school in Antigua, Guatemala. It’s a small operation in the heart of Antigua that is doing great work educating about 80 kids a year.

350.org - Athlete Advocate
While on expedition human powering, I was also raising awareness about climate change with 350.org
