Summary

I moved to Colorado in 1998 from New Hampshire. I worked at a ski area and nannied for the GM of Loon Mountain. I fell in love with snow sports and searched for bigger better mountains. Here I am 24 years later. I got married in 2006, we had our son in 2010. I managed a snowboard shop for 12 years and eventually got the opportunity to purchase. Due to our divorce, we unfortunately had to close down 4 years later. I have been in the snow industry for over 30 years. The outdoors is my passion. Finding a long term local career that is lucrative to support my son and I.

I thrive in customer service and giving people a great experience.
