Story

Hello!! If you're reading this, you are most likely of the following in relation to me: friend, family member, current/former colleague, current/former girlfriend, someone I met at a wedding, someone I met out at a bar, a federal investigator trying to prevent charity fraud (thank you for your service!), or a complete stranger. Regardless, thank you for visiting this page!

If you don't already know, I'm raising money to support Washington's national parks via Climb for a Cause 2024. Our team of climbers (all Microsoft employees) is dedicated to raising funds for search and rescue efforts across the state's national parks (Ex. Mount Rainier, North Cascades, Olympic). We believe that every person deserves the opportunity to experience the beauty of nature and we want to ensure that these parks are accessible and safe for all.

MY GOAL: to raise **$3,800 USD** by the time we reach the summit of Mount Rainier (Tahoma) in the summer of 2024. EVERY DONATION COUNTS, no matter how small. Your contribution will go directly towards supporting search and rescue efforts in these incredible parks and enable critical life-saving efforts.

As a special bonus, if you donate any amount to this cause I will send you a personal video expressing my gratitude FREE OF CHARGE. At the time of this writing, Tom Felton (Malfoy from Harry Potter) was charging $599 per Cameo appearance. It doesn't take an MBA to spot a deal like this :)

Seriously, thank you in advance for considering donating and supporting my effort to summit Mt. Rainier. It means the world to me & other fans of nature!
