About

American athlete and media personality best known for his achievements in the sport of ski cross. In addition to competing with Team Summit Colorado, he represented the United States at the 2024 Winter Youth Olympic Games in Gangwon, South Korea, where he helped secure a silver medal in the mixed team ski cross event - despite unknowingly sustaining a fractured back during the event. He has since used his platform to share his story of grit and perseverance, including as an Impact Speaker Finalist at TEDxBreckenridge in 2025.

Before Fame

He first began alpine skiing when he was only 2 years old. He gradually advanced through park & pipe disciplines before narrowing his focus to ski cross around the age of 8, coinciding with his family's relocation to Summit County, CO. At just 11 years old, he launched his own business called Freshly Squeezed, operating at summer events and venues to raise money toward his private school tuition. In 2025, he graduated from Colorado Connections Academy.

Trivia

In addition to his extensive list of athletic achievements, he has also earned several notable individual honors including the 2024 Freeski Athlete of the Year Award. He has been declared a 5x winner of the "Pay it Forward" Volunteer of the Year Award. In 2024, he made history by becoming the youngest American ski cross representative in history to race in a World Cup ski cross event.
