Our Team

Being able to bike and walk to work or school means a lot to me. I grew up on a farm, 9 miles from school, so the school bus or a car trip were my only options. We had roller skates we used on the barn floor and we’d ride bikes on our gravel driveway, having long skid contests and trying to ride to the bus stop (hills!) I’d call that the OG gravel ride! I also loved visiting my grandparents in Portland, Oregon,  where we could skate and bike on smooth sidewalks, what a revelation! Fast forward to today, and I still see the incredible value of being able to walk, bike, or roll to places and with this job I’m able to help shape the safety of our youth on the roads, PLUS advocate for sidewalks and bike lanes in our neighborhoods. It’s my pleasure to also serve on several active transportation committees in Boise and Ada County. “Mobility is not defined by how many wheels you have, it’s about how you can move.” (that’s me) My nickname is Safety Officer Brady, but I still like to have fun on a bike. Let’s Ride!

Active transportation really entered my life in 2008 when I decided to bike across America. I have since cycled across the country twice and continue to ride for fun and to get around town. Bicycling has helped shaped my life and introduced me to a new way to view transportation, health and the type of community I want to live in. Being able to help progress my community’s infrastructure and share the joys about walking and biking with children and adults is what fuels me. I enjoy educating and problem solving on how to make transportation and safety more integrated with our daily lives.

I am originally from western Wisconsin and have been using my bicycle as a means of transportation since third grade. I loved having those two miles of freedom before going to school at such a young age and have continued that pursuit all throughout my life. Being a SRTS coordinator allows me to take my gained knowledge and teach kids how to live their best lives on two wheels. In addition to being a SRTS coordinator, I am also an League Cycling Instructor, USA Cycling coach, elite mountain and road racer and full-time commuter. When I’m not on my bike, I am most likely on my roller blades running my dogs and cat! Keep er’movin’!

Human-powered mobility is freedom, and being able to move that way safely throughout life is an amazing thing. I’ve been an avid cyclist for as long as I can remember whether I was mountain biking in the foothills, riding my bike to school, or commuting through major cities out west, I’ve always felt that same freedom. That passion has stuck with me and carried right into my career. I spent 8 years in the local bike industry, and now I get to work on making this valley a safer place to commute for kids and adults alike. My goal is simple, help the next generation discover their own love for cycling and walking, and give them the tools to be their own advocates for change. Goforth and ride!
