So long story short I'm a skier... not a longboarder, not a coffee drinker, not an academic, and not an artist - although I would call myself all of those. I work in the summer so I can ski the entire winter. My friends get tired of me scouting lines on hikes during the summer and I get tired of them picking huckleberries so they can make jam. I'm a timid person yet a fierce skier who rides with the meanest and most talented locals every day. I try things that push my limits in both physical and mental capacities. This keeps me driven and passionate not only for skiing but for all aspects of life. I am not trying to sell Langes to you, but am excited about sharing stories, challenging others, getting pushed, and endorsing a product that I trust and feel confident driving hard in.
