About Me

A LITTLE BACKGROUND

It all began in California when I first strapped on my skis at the young age of two, and I immediately fell in love with the sport. I knew then that skiing was my passion, and I pursued it with unwavering dedication by attending Burke Mountain Academy, a high school in Vermont focused on ski racing.

My journey was far from easy, but my hard work and determination paid off in amazing ways. I was honored to earn a spot on the U.S. Ski Team, competed in the 1992 Winter Olympics, the X-Games and became a two-time World Extreme Skiing Champion. However, I consider some of my proudest moments to be when I filmed ski film segments with top companies like Warren Miller, Matchstick Productions and Switchback Entertainment, showcasing my skills and earning recognition such as the Best Short award at the 2014 Powder Awards for “SuperMom”.

I firmly believe that anything is possible with the right mindset, and my journey is a testament to this. If you’re searching for success in your own pursuits, I’d be more than happy to share my story with you or speak with your team on how to achieve your goals while staying true to your passions.

Let’s ski together and unlock your potential! Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions.
