Biography

Jamie grew up in a small town in southeastern Utah, where he enjoyed camping, hiking, hunting, and exploring with his family. An Eagle Scout who has stayed involved in scouting over the years, his love for the outdoors carried into adult life. Jamie is a member of the American Mountain Men Association and enjoys studying the history of the explorers who roamed the West — then applying what he’s learned in the wilderness, living off the land and facing the elements as they would have.

Jamie has worked in a range of fields, from restaurant general manager to driving across the country, before coming to STAR Guides seeking fulfillment in his work. He served as a field guide for just over two years and then as an assistant field director for nearly two more, training and mentoring staff and working directly with clients. Jamie loves the wilderness and knows personally how it heals the wounded. As Field Director of Staff Services, he makes sure the people on his team are well taken care of.
