Why I am at Wy’East

I am at Wy’East because it brings together what I care about most in snowboarding: progression, fun, mentorship, and helping young snowboarders grow as people and as riders. Mt. Hood has always meant something special to me, and Wy’East has some of the best training facilities in the world right here on campus. I am excited to bring my experience back into this environment and help support the next generation of snowboarders.
