My Story

US Military Veteran  •  15 years of prepping experience  •  First aid AED certified  •  NYS Outdoor Guide  •  Wilderness first aid certified  •  Over 25 years of outdoor experience (hunting, fishing, camping etc.)

From a very young age I always had to be resourceful. Growing up in a household that didn’t have much money, meant not buying new things, hand-me-down clothing and toys, and no vacations. When something was broken, there were two options: fix it ourselves or do without. “Resourcefulness” was my middle name. I learned what made things tick because I had to.

​

I come from a family of outdoors-men, hunters and fisherman. I grew up spending a great deal of time in the woods for two main reasons. It filled our freezer with fresh food and it didn't cost anything to go outside. Hence, nature became my playground. That mindset would propel me further than I ever could have imagined.

​

 I joined the military straight out of High school and shipped out as soon as I turned eighteen. There I learned more about myself and my ability to be resourceful really came into play. I learned survival skills I hadn’t needed to know in the past and loved it. I honed my skills and started looking for reasons to test my mettle. When I got out of the military, I got back into camping and the outdoors as much as possible and would go as often as I could. Sometimes I would go with as many friends as I could rally, and sometimes, no one at all...which was an eye-opening experience. Being alone in the woods taught me more about myself than ever before. I’ve been using those experiences to further enhance my understanding.

​

My ability to maintain focus during stressful situations is probably one of my strongest traits. To react under pressure and maintain the concentration required, allows me to do what most can’t—think clearly. This survival mindset has those who know me saying that if there was ever a crisis situation, my presence would give them a feeling of safety,  security and hope.

Day Hike

​

Tim was our guide up to Mohonk Mountain. Our group was a party of 3 & he came well prepared. Before we even started the hike, he provided valuable information on what equipment we required, explained the basics and off we went. We took as many breaks as I requested (since I was the beginner, I had a lot of requests).
The hike went really well, and more than the experience, I will never forget the knowledge Tim shared throughout the hike. I cannot wait until we do another hike with Tim! 5 Stars for everything! Great job Tim!

Disaster

Preparedness

I was introduced to Tim by a mutual connection. I consider myself to be  self reliant, however, I still wouldn’t have been fully prepared in an emergency situation. I currently live alone and Tim set me up with everything I needed in case of a natural disaster. I’m much more at ease now and don’t have to worry what would happen if I lost power for multiple days and had to stay in my home for an undetermined period of time. I have already introduced Tim to my friends and family, especially the ones who have children.

day Hike

I am a novice hiker with very little experience. So when the opportunity arises to do an all day hike at the Gunks, I was a little nervous. Luckily, I had a great hiking guide, Tim, who took me and a couple of coworkers of mine on a 6 hour hike. Tim was amazing. He told us what to pack and what the best trails for our skill level were. He also took us on a rock scramble and into a giant cave. He made the whole hiking experience much more pleasurable. I would highly recommend Tim to anyone planning a hiking trip.

A very important benefit is related to vitamin D. Most of the vitamins and minerals are obtained from food, but our body can absorb vitamin D directly into the skin through sunlight...
