Winter 22/23. Breckenridge Mountain, CO

As the snow guns fired up in the Catskills, I made my way west, pulled by the familiar peaks of home. I joined Breckenridge's Peak 8 adult pod for a memorable first season at Vail Resorts. I had the chance to teach at Vail and Beaver Creek, lead my first women's camps, and forge lasting connections with families who would return season after season. I earned two new certifications—Freestyle Specialist 1 and Children's Specialist 2—and was honored to receive the Rookie of the Year Award.
