To become more fit, have a better understanding of my strengths and weaknesses allowing me to become a better racer, and achieve great results.

My hearts 160 beats per minute, and thinking about how ridiculous the concept of ski racing is but how incredibly fun it is to fly down a hill of snow and ice as you try to make it around every blue and red gate until the finish line, while all eyes are on you.

Oatmeal, fruit and orange juice with coffee.

"You looked good...very relaxed and concentrated...probably why you were also very slow".

Biking, volleyball, reading, music

I chose to join the NSA because of the great things I have heard about their program. They have a dedicated, determined and friendly group of athletes, students and coaches and I felt I would greatly benifit from their program. It is such a privillage to have the oportunity to recieve amazing coaching, on and off the ski hill, and teaching all in one friendly and inspiring environment.
