Meet the Team Behind Adventure Life Vans

When people ask who builds our vans, the answer is simple:

We do.

Adventure Life Vans isn't a large manufacturing company or a high-volume production shop.

We're a small Boise-based builder focused on craftsmanship, customer experience, and creating vans that genuinely improve the lives of the people who own them.

Meet Blake

Blake brings more than 25 years of experience in construction, remodeling, and carpentry.

Long before building camper vans, he spent decades creating homes and improving spaces for families.

That experience translates naturally into van building.

A camper van is simply a much smaller home with far more constraints and much higher expectations for functionality.

Blake approaches every build with the same philosophy:

The space should be practical, intuitive, durable, and enjoyable to use every day.

Because Adventure Life Vans builds only three to four custom vans per year, Blake remains deeply involved in every project personally.

He also enjoys helping DIY builders and existing van owners troubleshoot issues, improve systems, and create solutions that fit how they actually travel.

Meet Erica

Erica brings more than 25 years of experience building businesses and teams, from small startups to organizations employing more than 15,000 people.

Her expertise in operations, communication, and customer experience helps ensure every project runs smoothly.

Throughout the build process, Erica works closely with clients to provide updates, answer questions, and keep projects moving forward.

Building a custom van should be exciting.

Her goal is to make sure the process feels that way.

Why We Stay Small

Many builders aim to produce as many vans as possible.

We've chosen a different path.

By limiting ourselves to just three to four custom builds each year, we're able to maintain a level of craftsmanship and attention to detail that simply isn't possible at larger volumes.

Every van receives the time and care it deserves.

Every client receives direct access to the people actually building their van.

Adventure First

When we're not working, we're usually outside.

Mountain biking.

Skiing.

Camping.

Road tripping.

Exploring Idaho and beyond with our family.

Those experiences are the reason Adventure Life Vans exists.

We wanted to help more people spend more time outdoors while still enjoying many of the comforts of home.

The products we recommend aren't chosen from catalogs.

Many have been tested on our own trips, in our own vans, and through our own adventures.
