Extracurricular
A Grand Adventure: An avid outdoorsman and adventurer, Fitz paddled the entire 287 miles of the Grand Canyon over a 25-day period in December 2014. “Nothing prepares one for three Class 8 rapids in a four-hour stretch. It was cold, but not as cold as you would think. Adrenaline is wonderful.”
Fun Facts
On Dry Land: The one thing he cannot live without is water, “but I prefer when it is in a craft beer or an excellent coffee.”
