Blake is always up for adventure!

Blake was born in Colorado Springs, Colorado thirty-five years ago. Growing up, everything revolved around his love for wind and things that fly. Every year he is doing some cool project with the kite industry. A couple of the most memorable was when he made kites into large snowflakes and worked on production for a commercial for Starbucks in 2011. In 2014, he flew a large kite in the shape of Toothless the dragon. He traveled all over the United States and to England to market the movie "How to Train Your Dragon" for Fox Dream Works. Blake has turned his passion for flight into something that he not only loves but can make a living doing while making many life long friends all over the world. Blake loves to travel with Olivia whenever they can get away as well as visit places like Columbia, Mexico and Africa to paraglide the mountains. He is always up for any adventure whatever it may be. He loves everything outdoors from stand-up paddle boarding, snow kiting, fishing and paragliding. His full time job is a paragliding instructor and tandem pilot in Utah. If it is a good day for flying, you can bet he will be outside with his paraglider in the sky. It is his happy place and helps him relax. On bad weather days, he will be inside teaching a class to other paragliding pilots about their gliders or the sport in general.  Blake enjoys playing poker. You can catch him and Olivia making a last minute trip to Vegas to play in tournaments or they will host friendly games at their house with other friends in the neighborhood. Blake is a professional poker dealer and owns a company with Olivia to help train poker dealers and hold free-to-play games. One thing about Blake that sums up who he is... he is passionate and wants life to be fun and exciting no matter what he is doing. He is an inspiration when it comes to empowering ones self to do what they love!

Olivia on the California Coast in 2016

Olivia was born in Wichita Falls, Texas thirty - seven years ago. At a young age, she was entrepreneurial, starting her own house cleaning business at 15 years old. Her Mom and grandma would drive her to jobs until she got her drivers license. Olivia grew up on a farm and had a love for cows. She would milk her cow that she raised from a bottle fed calf until she graduated High School. She was home schooled by her mom and would often go to work with her Dad, who owns his own plumbing company. At 23 years old, she moved to Denver, Colorado. This is where she met the love of her life, Blake. From early on the farm, she developed a love for photography. Today, that passion has grown into a hobby where she loves photographing her friends and their kids. She also has a love for music and can play several instruments. The piano, guitar and fiddle. She is self taught on all of them and loves to sing as well. She has even written a couple of songs herself that came from special moments in her life. Olivia loves to travel and her happiest place is by the ocean. She loves Stand-Up Paddle-boarding and snorkeling. Her most favorite place she has ever been to is Tahiti but Oahu is a close second. The water in Tahiti is just like the pictures and snorkeling with the sharks and fish is so amazing!! One thing that will sum up who Olivia is... nurturing. She loves the people in her life and would do anything for them.
