Katie Ryan

Birthday: January 3

What athlete do you look up to? I most look up to all my former teammate from the U.S. Ski Team, they're handling one of the world's most brutal sports with grace and strength. I also really admire Kerri Walsh & Michelle Kwan.

Where do you get fashion inspiration? My fashion inspiration comes from seeing my family of women dress with confidence. I base my shopping decisions around fit, fabric and color.

If you could travel anywhere, where would you go? I would hop on a plane to Japan right now! If I stayed for the infamous "Ja-POW" I might never return.

Favorite SKEA piece: Anything in Navy Camo, especially the Anna Coat. It's the pinnacle of new-age winter wear.

Skiing Accomplishments: My proudest ski accomplishments weren't the improving World Cup speed results or North American Cup titles, but the races where I set my intentions and skied my best without having to think about it. When I found "flow", I knew I did everything in my power to win, and it usually worked out pretty well.
