Path to the #AdaptiveNation:
I became involved with the NAC for the first time through Unlimbited Ski and Snowboard Camp. This camp was the first time that I interacted with amputees in a group setting. Then, I went to Big White with the team to race and get classified.

Start Competing in the World Cup Circuit
Earn a spot on the US Para Snowboard Team

PB&J at the top of the hill on race day.
