Communications Director

“Writers think, what’s another word for thesaurus?” ~Steven Wright

As the Communications Director at USA Nordic, I’m settled right in to get the word out. With a degree in Communications, my career has always revolved around sports, culminating to this idyllic moment, working for USA Nordic.

Whether it’s my work at the Olympics, Paralympics and Special Olympics, along with Patagonia, Deer Valley Resort, National Geographic and NCAA, it’s a perfect confluence of experience. Communication, for me, manifests itself via this trusty computer, a purposeful pen, a focused still camera, a fast action video camera, the business end of a microphone and a mountain of manuscripts.

The inrun of my passion for skiing began while growing up in Illinois, it’s take-off happened living in New York, flight was spent in Colorado and I landed in Utah years ago, all jump hill states. USA Nordic has assembled a winning team of sponsors, board, partners, staff, athletes, parents and members, a team on which I’m honored to be.
