Chad grew up in Richmond, VA. He has always called Steamboat a home away from home because of the numerous vacations his family took to Steamboat growing up. He attended the University of Mississippi, and spent his college summers in Steamboat guiding fly fishing trips. When Chad isn’t in the office, he will most likely be found skiing, chasing the big browns and rainbows that call the Yampa River home, riding his mountain bike, or hanging out with his Yellow Lab, Dixie.
