yrs experience

When I started with OTT, they welcomed me with open arms to a world I had never seen before! The world of being a river guide has its many benefits and challenges along with it. With OTT, I was boosted with a sense of confidence on the water I had never experienced before. With the tools they provided me for success, it has opened up so many opportunities and the possibility for potential connections I can make with people in a setting nobody can say isn’t a great time. All around in my professional experience so far, you can’t beat some time on the water with good people!

  • Hometown: Grants Pass, Oregon
  • Favorite rapid or stretch: Nugget Falls and the Green Room
  • Favorite part of a trip: The opportunity to get to know people and their life experiences, also the fact that we provide our guests with an experience that some have never seen before!
  • Certifications: Wilderness First Responder, CPR and AED

River Guide

I knew several of the guides for our company well before I started (Tim Satre, Mike Slagle, Robbie Henderson, etc.). Satre was one of my wrestling coaches in high school and knew of some openings and was able to help me land a position with the company. Ultimately, it was the friendships I have created with other guides and guests that have completely changed my original path of pursuing a position in the medical field and moving into education. The lifelong lessons, friendships, and therapies have all been reasons that continue to bring me back year after year.

  • Hometown: Grants Pass, Oregon
  • Favorite rapid or stretch: Lower Rogue River or Main Salmon
  • Favorite part of a trip: Movie night! This is where all of the photos and videos we have taken along the river are shown. It's amazing to see the laughs, cheers, and hollers that come with our trip thus far.
  • Certifications: CPR and AED, Swiftwater Rescue Technician, Trip Leader Certification

First Year Guide

I first got into rafting when I was around 14 years old because of my father. Being hired at Orange Torpedo Trips brought me closer to what I loved doing with my Dad and helped me appreciate all the small things that happen on the river. Seeing people's smiles is the best part of the job, especially at the end of the trip when everyone is talking about their favorite rapid or the wildlife they saw.

  • Hometown: Lake Oswego, Oregon
  • Favorite rapid or stretch: Fish Ladder on the Lower Rogue
  • Favorite part of a trip: Seeing others enjoy the water
  • Certifications: CPR and AED
