Born in Longmont, Colorado, Kalamaya pursued higher education at the University of Virginia, where he earned his Bachelor of Arts with Highest Distinction in 2002.

Kalamaya began his professional journey as a Deputy District Attorney in Eagle County, Colorado, from 2007 to 2010. This experience provided him with invaluable courtroom exposure and developed his litigation skills. In 2010, he transitioned to Garfield & Hecht, P.C., where he worked as an associate attorney until 2014.

His desire to create a more impactful practice led him to co-found Reynolds, Kalamaya & Voboril, LLC in 2014, which later evolved into Kalamaya | Goscha. Throughout his career, he has taken over 50 cases to trial, with several cases receiving media attention from major publications like the Wall Street Journal, LA Times, ESPN, and the Denver Post.
