My parents strapped a pair of plastic skis on my boots when I was two years old and sent me down our driveway in Vail. Of course, they were holding on to me the whole time, but that was my first experience 'skiing.'

Skiing takes so much out of me, and when I start a family, I want to do it 100%.

When I was born, my parents were huge into skiing. I grew up on Mont Blanc, skiing on that hill. I was really a ski baby. Loved it; I still love it.

Skiing not only for yourself and your family, but for your country, was surreal. The amount of support I got from back home in Indiana was insane.

I know my family and I would always go up to the mountains just for fun. We always skied. Then, all of a sudden, my brother started snow boarding. Older brother thing, I had to do what he was doing. So I started snow boarding.

The history of skiing is important to me.

Making ski racing fun and engaging for kids and families is an exciting opportunity and a real passion of mine.

And, as an adult, I tried skiing, and I ended up in tears.

My mom has this great skiing event in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, every year for a local charity.

I love skiing.
