About Erik

---

I enjoy training and preparing for ultramarathons and other distance running (especially trail running) events. In addition to swimming, yoga, and weightlifting, I feel like I am functioning at my best when my mind, body, and spirit are all in sync.

I am blessed with a partner who shares my vision and compliments my experience and passions. Together, Kelly and I are in a constant state of self-improvement, pushing ourselves beyond our comfort zones to experience life as our best selves.

When we first moved to Tonto Basin and opened Blue Haven Ranch, it was our opportunity to share with the community our passions for health and wellness. Especially Kelly, who started a health and wellness social club for women in the area. Now, with Blue Haven Wellness, we are able to share that passion with a wider community.

Born and raised in Southern California, I have my undergraduate and graduate degrees from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, and MBA from Arizona State University.

I currently split my time with my partner between our ranch in Tonto Basin and Fountain Hills, Arizona, where I work for the City of Mesa.
