Along with being a writer for SBM, Dutch is a psychology doctoral candidate and a freelance writer of fourteen years. Dutch has participated in both supported and unsupported treks in the U.S., Asia, and Central and South America. When he's not adventuring, Dutch also writes investigative journalism and short fiction.
