I’ve been filming bouldering since 2023. It was one of the first sports I first picked up a camera for.

Special shout-outs to @nilobatle and @dallasmilburn for the support over the years, and @brooklynuprising, @novaboulders, @mosaicboulders for the opportunities.

“There was a time when a day in the mountains only felt complete if I was climbing something hard.

Growing up skiing and hiking, big days in the mountains have always felt familiar, but in a climbing context, the approach was usually more of an inconvenience to be endured than an objective worth savoring in and of itself.

A recent finger injury was the perfect impetus to trade pulling hard for very sore legs and a deeper appreciation for the world of fast alpine ascents.

Partnering up with fellow ambassador (and far superior endurance athlete) Collin Wills was the perfect way to explore more of the High Sierra and tick a long-overdue summit of Mt. Whitney.“

Some of the best days in the mountains don’t come from pulling hard — they come from putting one foot in front of the other for hours on end. For regional ambassadors @ross.fulkerson and @cw.climbs, Whitney was a reminder of that, and a reminder of how good it is to share the effort with someone who pushes you to keep going.

2026 Youth Nationals ⭐️

I had a great time at @usaclimbing youth nationals. Huge thanks to my friends, family, and coaches, especially @diggy_smallz and @cw.climbs , for always supporting my training and competitions.

This season was one of the hardest for me because I injured my finger at the first QE and couldn’t climb for a while. I’m so glad I listened to my coaches and fully rested until my finger was ready to climb again. Because of the time off I took, for a while I didn’t feel confident in my climbing, which was really discouraging and mentally challenging. Luckily, @diggy_smallz helped me find warmups for my finger and slowly but surely I was able to climb pockets and crimps again without the fear of re-injury.

One of my weaknesses that I had been working extra hard on was slab climbing, and I’m very happy with how I climbed slab this nationals. I feel a lot more confident on slab now, which is great! It’s nice to see the results reflect the hard work I’ve put in.

My goal this year was to make finals for both bouldering and ropes, and I made finals for ropes which was very exciting (Also on the youth national team!!) Although I didn’t fully meet my goal this year, I had a lot of fun and truly enjoyed all the climbs, which I think is the most important. Thank you setters!

A fun part of photographing for Neon Gray was getting to document some of the East Bay’s classic buildering lines—not just the real rock. Among them, and probably the most famous, is the Doe Library Traverse on the UC Berkeley campus.

Known for its strange sequence of comp-style party tricks and its three simple rules:

• No climbing shoes
• No chalk
• No downpulling holds

While attending Berkeley, Colin eventually put the whole thing together. Don’t get it twisted—The Doe is no gimme. Board climbers quickly discover that their grip-‘n’-rip skill sets don’t mean much on the slick granite funk-ery of this East Bay institution.

Find these images and more in Neon Gray, my new East Bay bouldering photo book. Available through the link in my bio.

🟢 Neon Gray 🟡

I received a few sample proofs of Neon Gray, a photo book showcasing East Bay bouldering that I’ve recently finished, from the printer this past week, and I’m really excited about the quality. The pages are huge (9.5” x 13”), creating an immersive viewing experience that lets the images breathe in a way that feels true to the work.

Swipe to see a few selects from the book. There are 160 pages, so there’s a lot more to dig into.

The rest of the shipment should arrive in late May, and books will start shipping shortly after. Use the link in my bio to get a copy.

Throwback to @cw.climbs getting dragged into the Granite Arch side quest at the Blue Granite comp. We got shut down by the staff (understandably), but Ollie got in a few good goes too.
