why mogul skiing?

Ever since the first day I entered a mogul competition, I knew that this sport was for me. The thrill and adrenaline associated with stepping into the gate before each run, knowing you could have the run of your life, is a feeling that I will cherish years after I stop mogul skiing. I love stepping it up each day during training and competition to obtain my full potential as an athlete and a person. Throughout my career, I’ve learned various lessons that will follow me well into my life beyond skiing; the most essential being that consistent hard work will always pay off in the long run and trusting yourself is essential to achieving your best.
Beyond the Bumps
Aside from freestyle competitive skiing, I graduated from Stanford Online High School, a highly selective independent school for gifted students and intellectual risk takers in the Spring of 2018, and began my collegiate studies at New York University in Summer 2019 through Writers in New York, a Creative Writing course. For the next step in my education, I’m beyond excited to earn my undergraduate degree at Columbia University in NYC!!!
Giving Back
When I’m at home in Park City, I have been volunteering a few hours per week at the local food bank - The Christian Center of Park City. I also volunteer at Nuzzles and Co. - the animal adoption shelter in Park City. My time giving back to the community has helped me to realize how important it is to give back, and how even a small bit of effort can make a big difference in one’s community.
