Notes
| What is an interesting fact about you? | I started my career as a frontline Ski Instructor and worked my way up to become a General Manager |
|---|---|
| What is a valuable lesson you learned in your snowsports career? | Perseverance, goals we set are not always obtained instantly. Things take time, commitment and effort. If we always remember we are in a learning environment whether leading a project or participant in it. Our goals will be achieved. |
| What is your favorite memory from your snowsports career so far? | It was my first experience within PSIA at ProJam. Five days on snow, skiing with a clinician that was all about skiing. The information shared was pointed and minimal, but the time skiing was infinite. |
