Meet Keith

Keith's journey from the Midwest to becoming an IFMGA-certified mountain guide is a compelling story of passion and dedication. Growing up in a region with limited climbing opportunities, he faced the unique challenge of developing his skills through patience and self-reflection. This foundational experience fostered a deep sense of resilience and a thoughtful approach to the mountains.

His introduction to the possibility of a career in the outdoors at 13 through the Outward Bound program was a pivotal moment. Despite his early start in guiding—before he could even order a beer—Keith's commitment to the profession is evident. Living year-round in New Hampshire with his family, he integrates his love for the mountains into his everyday life.

Keith’s enthusiasm for sharing his expertise and witnessing his clients’ achievements is a clear testament to his dedication. Earning his IFMGA guides license in March 2024 represents a significant milestone, underscoring his extensive experience and unwavering commitment to professional excellence in mountain guiding.
