Sea Kayaking

Age	40
Hometown	North Wales, UK
Experience	25 years as a paddler, coach and messing around in all kinds of boats.
Achievements	My entire life has been involved with the outdoors. At an early age I was introduced to rock climbing amongst the Peak District outcrops near Sheffield, England and a school trip to North Wales in 1983 began my passion for paddle sports and mountaineering. Now that I have completed my doctorate (PhD) in expedition leadership, I try to achieve a balance of summers on the sea and winters in the mountains when not lecturing on a degree program for outdoor leaders and adventure sports coaches. Along the way I have gained a number of British Canoe Union awards including the coveted Level 5 Coach (Sea). Also, I was instrumental in establishing the UK Storm Gathering symposiums, and continue to be involved with the events now in their fifth year.
Biggest Adventure	Almost any day I’m not in the office. I've been fortunate enough to travel around, work in and explore some truly unique and magical places - Greenland, Alaska, Baja, Norway, Scotland, Wales, Australia, New Zealand - with some equally inspiring friends, colleagues and students. The best adventures often occur when things don’t go according to plan or there is a chance to observe nature in action, be that musk ox, polar bears, black bears, orcas, whales, sharks, dolphins, otters, seals and any number of bird life.
Philosophy	To actively encourage, enable and engage those who wish to participate in the outdoors so that it can lead to a positive and sustainable change in their own personal relationship with the world and its subsequent stewardship.
