Bicycle Honeymoon
You all know that I love my bicycle. It ranks right up there with bean burritos, Latin women and sunny days. In my latest adventure, you’ll see exactly how much I adore my two-wheeled love machine. This touching love story was filmed in Aruba while on a press trip with Diamond PR and the Aruba [...]
Guatemalan Smiles
I recently had the pleasure of filming a promotional video for Cooperative for Education in one of my favorite places on the planet, Guatemala. Their mission is to create sustainable textbook, computer center, reading, and scholarship programs in Guatemala. I’m usually very weary of aid organizations, mainly because they’re too focused on charity-they provide [...]
Hip Hip Hooray! I’m a Finalist for Australia’s ‘Best Job in the World!’
I’ve got the golden Ticket…almost! It’s time to win the chocolate factory! (in this case, it’s a six month job in the Australian Outback) I was just named as a finalist for Tourism Australia‘s ‘Best Job in the World,’ specifically in the role of Outback Adventurer. With over 45,000 video applications from around planet earth, [...]
‘Out There Guy’ Returns!
The summer of 2006 is where it all began. I was living in mom’s basement, freshly back from my Peace Corps service and wondering what to do with my life. I knew I wanted to be a travel show host, but not quite sure where to start. I stumbled across live auditions for BTV 54, [...]
Bed Bouncing around the world
I dance on Beds; it’s what I do to keep my soul happy! Every bed I come in contact with is prey to my not-so-amazing dance moves. I travel the world as a filmmaker/TV host and always make sure to bounce around my hotel room like a crazed maniac, it’s the perfect medicine after a [...]

Volcano Boom Boom!
It’s always been a dream to witness an erupting volcano, I can literally stare at the gooey, fluorescent red glow of lava for hours. I’m a total Discovery dork. Well, I finally got my wish. While dancing like a fool atop Acatenango, its cranky neighbor ‘Fuego,’ decided to put on quite the earth shattering [...]
Park City Olympic Madness!
It’s not everyday you get your ass handed to you by a couple cute Olympians. “Hey Kaylin, can I inter….Whoosh! Ok see you at the bottom!” I recently spent time with downhiller extraordinaire, Kaylin Richardson and ski jumper, Lindsey Van (not Vonn) while on a press trip in Park City. I don’t go on many [...]
The Guate Shake
This is what you get when you put together a group of goofy Gringos and Guatemalans. I recently found myself in the beautiful country of Guatemala right in the middle of one of the biggest internet phenomenons in recent time, Harlem Shake mania. I was there filming a promotional documentary for Cooperative for Education, [...]
Out of the Wild Venezuela
It’s been two years since Out of the Wild premiered on the Discovery Channel and I still think about this incredible journey almost every day. I recently edited together a highlight reel from the show and it brought back all kinds of powerful memories. I lost 30 pounds, barely slept for a month, ate nasty [...]
Cycling Prince Edward Island
I had the privilege of going to beautiful Prince Edward Island this past year while on assignment for Matador, here’s the article. It’s Canada eh!
