Our Story Through Adventure

I started CirraPeak with a clear mission, to help more people experience nature with clarity, confidence, and purpose. After years of planning and executing my own adventure trips, I realized how many folks dream of getting out there but feel overwhelmed by the logistics. CirraPeak Adventure was born to bridge that gap and allow you to lead a more adventurous lifestyle.

My journey into backpacking and climbing began back in 2015, when I hiked from Georgia to North Carolina along the Appalachian Trail. That trip changed everything. The rhythm of walking, the challenge of self-reliance, and the quiet beauty of remote landscapes unlocked something deep in me. I’ve been hooked ever since.

Since then, I’ve spent hundreds, if not thousands, of miles on trail, both solo and with friends, planning complex routes, dialing in gear systems, managing food and weight strategies, securing permits, arranging shuttles, and everything in between.

Some of the adventures that have shaped me include:

  • High Sierra Trail (Mt. Whitney summit) - Sequoia National Park, CA

  • The Enclosure Climb - Grand Teton National Park, WY

  • O-Trek - Torres del Paine National Park, Patagonia, Chile

  • Lost Coast Trail - King Range, CA

  • Cathedral Peak + Half Dome summits – Yosemite National Park, CA

  • Temple Crag + Crystal Crag (climbing) – Eastern Sierra, CA

  • 40 miles of the John Muir Trail – Yosemite & Ansel Adams Wilderness

  • 100 miles of the Appalachian Trail – Georgia to North Carolina

Over time, I’ve come to love not just the travel, but the process of it. The preparation, the fine details, the art of building an experience that’s both challenging and rewarding.

That’s where CirraPeak comes in. I don’t guide trips, rather I partner with you 1-on-1 to design the perfect adventure: tailored to your experience level, your goals, and your timeline. Whether you're stepping into the backcountry for the first time or looking to plan a demanding multi-day alpine loop, I’m here to make the process smoother, smarter, and more empowering.

If you’re ready to experience the wild in a deeper, more meaningful way - let’s build something great together.

See you out there,
