Aidan was born in Phoenix, AZ, but grew up in Orange County, CA, and has lived in Boise since 2021. This is his first year rafting with Cascade on the Payette. He loves to ski at Bogus Basin and mountain bike in the summer. In the offseason, he is a part of the Boise State class of 2029 where he is pursuing a degree in Mechanical Engineering. When not rafting, Aidan loves anything outdoors, including (but not limited to!) surfing, camping, overlanding, climbing, and taking photos. Aidan loves listening to music, attending concerts, and especially enjoys concert photography. He hopes that rafting (...and eventually engineering) will contribute to funding more outdoor gear, more photography stuff, and a more reliable car! Ask him about the darkroom in his closet! Fun fact: He used to be a steersman on a 6-man, open-ocean Hawaiian outrigger canoe team while living in California.
