Have you ever met someone who was one type-two-fun story after another? Someone who had adventure in their veins?

Meet Jay Irwin.

Jay Irwin is an adventurous soul who is determined to inspire people through wilderness experiences. After a year-long sabbatical, Jay has successfully rounded the corner on combining his love of adventure with his desire to make a positive difference in other people’s lives. He teaches audiences, from inner-city youth to executives, how to bring the gifts learned from wilderness experiences into daily life to create powerful and long-lasting change.

Jay is an avalanche survivor, Ironman finisher, avid skier and backpacker, and a foolhardy mountain biker, but his underlying passion is being a dedicated father. Jay is also a board member of cityWILD, a local nonprofit bringing adventure and leadership to culturally diverse, inner-city youth.

In Jay’s own words, “I have a strong belief that adventure is a key ingredient in transforming lives.”

We couldn’t agree more! Buckle up, this one is a bumpy ride!
