Founder
Living 4 them outdoors was born out of the experience of healing and the restoration from time spent in the woods and wilds of Alaska.
being a veteran and having experienced horrors and stresses of war, i was able to find myself again while trudging through the woods, sitting around a campfire, and listening to the expansive quiet alongside many other brothers and sisters. During many an hour of discussing life, lessons learned, and future contemplations, the idea arose to pursue the ability to help as many veterans as possible who also might be struggling. Whether it be combat stress, everyday struggles, or simply the desire to get out and see what Alaska has to offer, our goal is to accommodate the needs of the individual to the best of our ability.
