Where can we find you when you are not on the hill?
Teaching the kiddies how to swim or lifeguarding at Meadow Park

Where can we find you on the hill?
No new snow? I’m riding the jump line. A couple cm of fresh, I’m riding Emerald trees or Peak chair.

Where is the last place you traveled snowboarding?
Last major trip was last summer at Snow Park, New Zealand. I’ve mixed it up with roadtrips to Snoqualmie and Mt Hood this Winter.

What is your favorite pick-up line?
How much does a Polar Bear weigh? Enough to break the ice! (This was actually used on me in the line-up to the Cambie)

If you could change your name to anything, what would it be?
I guess Prince already used that symbol… Any suggestions?

Worst situation you’ve ever been in:
I had a bad crash this year that left me in the hospital for a couple weeks. I’d say the hospital food as well as the long road to recovery.

Tell us something we probably don’t know about you?
I love to bake. Oatmeal choc chip cookies and banana muffins are the ultimate fave. You give me an oven and I will create goodness.

What is the best thing about snowboarding for you?
Learning something new every day on the hill and riding with the most amazing friends.

Who is the one person, dead or alive, you would spend a day with? Stephen Hawking. The guy can rap as well as do Quantum Theory

If you could have any super power, what would it be?
Like a cat, always landing on my feet.
