Biography

Home Hill – Hilltop & Alyeska Mountain Resort, Anchorage & Girdwood, Alaska

Board Term: 2021-2025

I began my love for skiing as a 10-year-old learning to ski at Arctic Valley Ski Area above Anchorage, AK. I wasn’t very good at it when I started but skiing was something I just had to keep doing.  When I got older, I took this passion with me to college at Central Washington University where I spent my time skiing the local resorts of Alpental, Snoqualmie, Mission Ridge, and White Pass. It wasn’t until I returned to Alaska and began diving into ski instruction at Alyeska Resort that I was able to fully appreciate the impact that a day with an instructor on the mountain can have on a person.

My passion as an instructor has lasted 31 seasons, 29 of them as a PSIA-AASI member. I hold certifications as an Alpine Level 3 instructor, Adaptive level 1, Alpine trainer for 10 seasons, and act as an Alpine level 1 examiner for the local mountains I call home, Alyeska Resort, Girdwood, Alaska & Hilltop Ski Area, Anchorage, AK.

Biography

Home Area: Snoqualmie

Board Term: 2023-2026

My favorite part of belonging to PSIA-NW are the opportunities we have to learn and grow as part of this fabulous community. A wonderful highlight was Winter Blast at Crystal Mountain and the opportunity to ski with fellow NW members in a small group led by Jeb Boyd, National Team Manager. The experience was challenging, fun, and provided an exceptional experience. My belief in our Association our Mission, Vision and Values inspires me to stay involved and give back so all of us can continue to enjoy the richness of this community we call family.
