When you were a kid, were there any early activities that might indicate you’d one day become a skydiver?
I had a lot of dreams about flying over mountains. Only some of them turned out to be night terrors.
What was the circumstance that led you to the DZ for the first time to make your very first skydive?
I saved up all my money from the tooth ferry and booked a tandem skydive as soon as I could.
What made you want to continue skydiving after your first jump?
The landing was softer than my childhood trauma, so I figured I’d keep doing it.
What’s the best / most memorable skydive you’ve ever made?
Wingsuit skydiving out of a friend’s airplane in Alaska and landing on his property in a field of fireweed.
If you could jump with anyone in the world, who would you like to jump with and why?
Robbin Williams for sure.
