Birthday: August 28

Which athlete do you look up to? Kristina Koznick (Koz) Landa. I grew up racing in Michigan & Kristina was proof that amazing, strong independent, and humble female racers can come out of the Midwest. When I tore my knee, she was one of the first people to come visit me and she gave me confidence that I could come back stronger than I went in, she was right.

Where do you get fashion inspiration? Fashion is a form of self-expression or in some ways, an instant language. So depending upon my desire to express a certain passion or mood, I will leverage inspiration from a variety of designers, pieces or looks that help me to do just that.

If you could travel anywhere, where would you go? Belize: clear blue water and wild jungles- let's go!

Favorite SKEA piece? Silver Cargo Pants & the new Hologram pieces. An effortless way to make a statement on and off the hill!

Skiing Accomplishments: Two-time high school downhill ski state champion, Jr. Olympic podium finisher, Mid-America Cup winner, member of the US Development Team, US Nationals qualifier. Now come full circle, my proudest skiing accomplishment/past time is ski coaching the youth within my community. It's one of the most rewarding things that I do!
