ABOUT ME: I was born in Edmonton, Alberta and skied in the Canadian Rockies until I was 7 years old, when I moved to Oregon! I then began to ski at Mount Bachelor and raced with Mount Bachelor Sports Education Foundation until I made the U.S. Ski Team in 2006. I have been on the U.S. Team since then, and have just begun to race on the World Cup circuit full time this year. I enjoy many activities outside of ski racing, such as playing music, knitting, sewing, reading, slacklining, rock climbing, mountaineering, mountain biking, free skiing, and basically any activity that involves mountains, lakes, rocks, or simply nature.
