As an experienced leader with the AMC Boston Chapter, I excel in guiding hiking expeditions across all four seasons of the year. I lead both single-day and multi-day hikes, where I share my deep knowledge and love for the outdoors with fellow hiking enthusiasts. I've hiked New Hampshire's 48 4,000-footers during both summer and winter seasons.
