"Adventure is how we meet. Connection is why we return. Identity is why we stay."

Curated, not crowded. Small groups selected for energy, openness, professional diversity, and shared ambition.
Premium, not polished to death. High-quality, seamless logistics with plenty of breathing room for real stories, spontaneity, and character.
Leadership built in. Reflection, perspective, and personal growth are embedded in the shared experiences, not forced into a conference room.

Founder & Curator
Why I Created Forge Collective

Designed for people who want more than a trip.

For nearly thirty years, I’ve built and led teams in the technology industry, helping organizations navigate change, innovation, and transformation. Along the way, I achieved many of the things commonly associated with success in business, and I’m deeply grateful for the opportunities and accomplishments that came with that journey. Much of the perspective, resilience, curiosity, and sense of purpose that contributed to that success was developed beyond the workplace through adventure, travel, personal development, and meaningful connections with people from different walks of life.

I'm a husband, father, adventurer, lifelong learner, and passionate believer in the power of community. Whether kitesurfing across turquoise waters in the Caribbean, carving fresh tracks through backcountry snow, discovering hidden corners of the world, or sharing stories and laughter over a great meal, I've learned that the moments that stay with us aren't defined by the destination. They're defined by the people beside us and the memories we create together.

Forge was created for people who crave adventure, meaningful conversation, and friendships that extend far beyond a single trip.

We spend as much time curating the people as we do the destinations. Because the best adventures don't just take us somewhere new. They surround us with the people who change our lives.

The greatest adventures eventually end. The memories, learnings, and friendships created don't.

Welcome to the Forge Collective.
