As a kid, he grew up digging for dinosaur bones, watching Zoboomafoo and the Crocodile Hunter, and playing in the mud. His fourth birthday party was in fact mud themed and his fifth was zoo themed. His time spent working as a summer camp counselor and middle school teacher led him to pursue a career in outdoor education.
