Hello and welcome to my Official Fundraising Page!
Independents’ Olympic Dreams Are Tied to a Shoestring
My story:
I grew up in Park City, UT doing many outdoor sports. I enjoy soccer, tennis, mountain biking and of course skiing! Growing up through organizations like the Park City Ski Team and the Winter Sports School have allowed me to pursue my dreams in the mountains. I spent seven years competing on the U.S. Ski Team before being one of the founding members of Independent Ski Racing last season. I competed in giant slalom and slalom in the 2010 Olympics and represented the United States at Alpine Championships in 2009 and 2011. I have seven North American Cup titles to my name including the overall title last season that guarantees me World Cup starts and a shot at the 2014 Olympics this upcoming season. Racing World Cup independently again next season will allow me to create an individualized program to support my athletic needs, but will also be a large financial commitment that I am working hard to fundraise for. I am also a current student at Westminster College in Salt Lake City where I am pursuing a degree in business. During my off time, I enjoy relaxing in the kitchen while baking and watching movies.
Fundraising:
Without the financial support of the national team, I raise money to help pay for the training, travel, competition and equipment expenses associated with being an independent World Cup ski racer.
