JESSE GRUPPER

What drives you?

I'm driven by the pursuit of continually improving my human potential. In climbing, I strive to continually push the limits of what I'm capable of. This has pushed me to have Olympic dreams, to send harder and harder climbs outside and to continually be a student of the sport. I'm also a mechanical engineer working the Harvard Biodesign Laboratory where I strive to provide others with the same opportunity to improve their human potential.


Favorite foods?

Apart from that, I'm gluten and dairy free due to my ulcerative colitis. It's pushed me to try new recipes - I love making granola, Pad Thai, and experimenting with new recipes.


Music?

I lightly play the Banjo, and enjoy listening to alt rock like Florence and the Machines or Caamp. Classical music is my go to before comps though!


Who is your hero?

My parents have always been my heroes!
