Like a Swiss watch, José is precise and reliable. With a Midas touch, he regularly dances down Bec des Rosses in Verbier on his snowboard, climbs the Matterhorn and rips new mountain bike trails everywhere in between. José works year round as an International Federation of Mountain Guides Associations mountain guide but is hesitant to call it work because he loves what he does. Besides guiding and trail building, José also works as a mindset coach, helping emerging athletes reach their full potential mentally. When he isn’t getting rad in the mountains, he is likely getting his serenity on practicing yoga or searching for the best ocean waves he can find.
