Micah has a passion for adventure and problem solving. After finishing a PhD in Engineering from the University of California at Santa Barbara, he hopped on a plane and spent the next 7 years living out of a backpack, traveling and trekking in Asia. Frustrated by the lack of information on independent trekking, he began to fill this gap by posting
logistical information on treks to his travel blog. He eventually spun the trekking guide portion off to its own site, indietrekking.com. Over the years, the most common request he would get was for local guide recommendations. In 2016, he decided to develop a better way for guides and trekkers to get together and he founded Sherpana.
