Seeing the way Jesus moves through the trips we are privileged to be on is the one of my favorite things in the world!
About Noah
Noah jokes that climbing is the third most amazing thing he gets to experience. The first being his relationship with Jesus, and second being his relationship with his wife Ciara! Climbing holds an incredibly special spot in Noah's heart. It is one of the few activities through which Noah can grow in his relationship with his friends, family, Lord, and self all at the same time, and it is something that allows him to grow in ways he never know possible.
The experience of guiding others on their first climbing trip and witnessing them touch outdoor rock for the first time are moments Noah looks forward to the most in his climbing practice. He sincerely believes that no matter who you are climbing has something to teach you, and that the best climber at the crag is the one that is having the most fun.
Work Experience

March 2023 - Present
Noah begins climbing at a gym in Detroit, Michigan. He finds himself wondering "Is this heaven?"
Noah leads his first climbing trips while working with a church youth ministry in Michigan. He realizes working in youth ministry and leading these trips that he feels the most at home when leading trips. This is the summer he starts to dream up what something called Cephas could look like.
Cephas Climbing begins and Noah goes all over the U.S. training and guiding, from the Smokey Mountains, Washington state, the Red River Gorge, and his home crags in Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
