"When I came to Alan, I had absolutely no climbing experience, and I only dreamed of climbing Mount Everest as a teenager. Initially, I thought I'd look stupid being 18, having no experience, and wanting to climb Everest, but Alan was extremely welcoming and supportive right off the bat. Despite my initial inexperience and being out of shape, Alan provided me with all of the insights and training I would need to summit Mount Everest at 19. He guided me every single step of the way, all the way to the top, and I'm extremely grateful to have a coach and mentor like him. He truly gives great advice, insights, and knowledge about mountaineering and what it takes to climb the world's highest peaks. I seriously could't have done it without him!"

"I got in contact with Alan in September 2023 consulting about a potential Everest expedition in the spring of 2024. Alan has extensive knowledge and experience on mountaineering, and provided valuable advice and recommendations based on the individual profile of his clients. Alan helped me make up my mind on an Everest expedition, choose the right guiding company, and provide me with the key points in terms of technical, physical and mental preparation for Everest. We had been working together all the way and we kept in touch during my Everest expedition. Alan was able to give me feedback and suggestions timely whenever I had questions or concerns during my preparation and the expedition. I think the knowledge and help from Alan played a key role in the success of my Everest climb and now I continue working with Alan toward my next mountaineering goal."
