About
Adam Andrés Pawlikiewicz Mesa is an ultra-endurance mountain athlete whose roots stretch from Colorado to Colombia and Poland. Born in the U.S. to immigrant parents, Adam developed an early love for the outdoors and a passion for exploring diverse cultures. His adventurous spirit led him from playing soccer at an international school in Poland to cycling across the U.S., Peru, Bolivia, and Brazil. His rigorous pursuits include completing several 100+ mile ultra marathons through rugged terrain and delving into his Latin American heritage further on two wheels. His lifelong goal is to forge deep connections with the landscapes, people, and cultures he encounters and to share these experiences with the world.
Dedicated to reshaping outdated and inaccurate narratives about underrepresented groups in the outdoor industry, Adam harnesses the power of visual storytelling. Working as a director, photographer and an athlete, he collaborates with fellow athletes and storytellers to bring new perspectives to light.
Professionally, Adam's photography has been featured in The New York Times, Insider, UltraRunning Magazine, and the Bikepacking Journal. On the commercial front, he has directed photo and film projects for prominent brands like Airbnb, Salsa Cycles, and Rab Equipment. As an accomplished endurance athlete, his exploits have been highlighted in National Geographic Travel and Patagonia.
