While growing up in Illinois Gordon was a competitive gymnast. The sport of gymnastics was a perfect outlet for his adoration of movement and desire to perform. This affinity for movement has influenced all aspects of Gordon’s life. He moved to Boulder, Colorado to pursue a degree in Integrative Physiology and was logically drawn to rock climbing. The fluidity and control required for climbing, as well as the inspiring landscapes, captivate him. After over a decade coaching climbing and gymnastics Gordon found his new home in the technology industry as a software engineer. In his free time he practices yoga, cycles, goes trail running, climbs, and enjoys the beautiful Rocky Mountains.
