Hello! I am an ACA whitewater kayak instructor and thank for you for taking the time to learn about me.

I have always been into the outdoors and sharing these experiences with others through teaching, such as working at Philmont as a backpacking instructor. I then expanded my outdoor pursuits into kayaking.  I went fully into kayaking and have never looked back. When given the opportunity, I can be found running some great southeastern rivers such as the Chattooga, Nantahala, Tallulah, Ocoee, and Little River Canyon. Since that time, I have come to love spending time kayaking and sharing it with others, so I went on and became an American Canoe Association-certified kayaking instructor. I have also trained in swiftwater rescue.  My wife is a new paddler and now can help with the classes where she is able to offer a perspective of a new boater.

My goal for teaching is to have small classes for personalized attention and for this I started M&G Outdoor Instruction LLC. In addition to doing classes, I can also do private sessions on the river or helping you with your roll on a lake or pool. My first priority will be your safety and then your enjoyment to develop a love of kayaking. Feel free to contact me below and check out my webpage (www.mgkayaker.com).
