Born in Scotland, Shane was interested in cryptozoology as a young lad, and moved to San Diego, CA when he was a teenager. Shane has always been an avid outdoorsman, adventurer at heart, and interested in discovering new things. Shane loves tracking, hiking, hunting, fishing, and testing his survivalist skills. In 1997, he started doing field research on the subject of sasquatch and spoke with eyewitnesses who had possible encounters, primarily in the San Bernardino Mountains, Yosemite, and Northern California. He moved to Oregon in 2008 and continued his research in the Pacific Northwest. In 2011, his research became all too real to him when he had his own sasquatch encounter. Shane’s passion, perseverance and methodology, along with his ambitions of furthering the research of sasquatch, eventually led him to becoming a proud member of the Olympic Project and subsequently a co-runner of the Project. He is a member of Project Zoobook, and has a YouTube channel called "Sasquatch in the Mist." Shane has also been involved in sasquatch-related documentaries, tv programs, as well as many radio shows and podcasts.
