STORY
​
Throughout my childhood, I ski raced at Attitash Mountain in New Hampshire, where I developed a love and passion for skiing. As my level of skiing improved and the races became more competitive, I made the decision to attend Burke Mountain Academy in 8th grade. After graduating in 2015, I was selected to the US Ski Team and I competed in all 4 alpine events for the following two years. In 2017, I began my NCAA career at The University of New Hampshire. As a full time student-athlete, I successfully managed the responsibility of balancing a rigorous race schedule while maintaining a full-time academic load. My time at UNH earned me recognition as a two-time All-American athlete and Dean’s List student. In May of 2021, I graduated with a degree in Economics from the Peter T. Paul School of Business and Economics.
In the January following graduation, I earned a spot with Team Global Racing. Having the privilege to train and compete alongside athletes from around the globe who regularly score World Cup points has given me a unique perspective and ultimately made me a stronger skier.
Last season, I earned my first World Cup points after an unforgettable day in Palisades, Tahoe. I also had numerous continental cup results, lining me up well for the upcoming season. I am entering the ’24-25 season with a personal best World Rank of 37 in GS (47 on WCSL). Last year marked the strongest season of my career. This coming year, my goal is to reach top 30 WCSL.
Outside of skiing, I’m an avid golfer, a passionate New England sports fan, and I love to spend my free time on Cape Cod whenever my busy schedule allows.
I am grateful to be a part of World Cup Dreams. I fundamentally believe the mission of World Cup Dreams is emulated through the continued success of our athletes. Long term, I hope to give back and support mission based organizations such as World Cup Dreams so the US can continue to produce the top World Cup skiers. Personally, I am grateful for your support in helping me achieve my goals and dreams.
