My name is Cole Golphenee and I was born in Seattle Washington on 4/24/1996. I moved to Sandpoint, Idaho when I was 6 years old with my family. I spent most my time while growing up skiing, skateboarding, mountain biking, and exploring the outdoors. I grew up going to a private Waldorf school as well. Three years ago, I left Sandpoint and moved to Salt Lake City Utah where I attend school at the University of Utah. I’m studying Economics with a minor in parks recreation and tourism. I have always loved photography but I purchased the necessary gear about a year ago, to be able to pursue my passion further than I could have imagined. Last spring I moved back to Sandpoint because of health reasons (Lyme Disease), moving back here was one of the best things I could have done for my heath. I have worked for a vacation rental company now for 6 plus years. I have done a lot of different things for Sandpoint Vacation Rentals, but now I do marketing and photography for them. Besides working there, I have some of my own clients and I sell prints. Also, I'm still a full time student at Utah through their online campus while living up in Sandpoint Idaho. If I'm not skiing, Biking, or skateboarding you can find me in the woods.
