About Me

From the wild coast of Alaska to the awe inspiring waters of Antarctica, I have successfully chartered guests to wonderful experiences. Professionalism and safety are top priorities in all of the journeys. I will be waiting for you at your boat with a kind smile, communicated itinerary, and ready for a successful outing.

I am available 7 days a week to bring you onto the wonderful waters of Lake Michigan and/or the Chicago River. Regardless of the location you would like to explore, know that you will be in confidents hands.

Outside of working with boats, I have traveled the entire Great Loop, the Mississippi River, and Seattle to San Diego on my kayak. I am a global adventurer that prefers exploring the planet with a motorcycle or any means on the water.
