Summary

I am driven by a passion for mountain sports thanks to my family weekends all year in Ferine. I also possess a solid foundation in customer service due to spending summers preparing and serving thousands of people BBQ daily at Canada's largest public festivals including Calgary Stampede, Rib-Fests and BC's PNE. Because of this I thrive in high-pressure environments. I also excel in technical skiing and enjoy sharing my passion for instruction learned from my mother being a professional mountain bike coach. My ability to adapt and communicate effectively ensures exceptional experiences for clients and students alike, showcasing my dedication to both hard and soft skills.


I have spent every possible minute of my spare time skiing and downhill biking in the mountains. I fell deeply in love with skiing in particular, as my skill level truly began to progress. Over the past 3 years, this passion has pushed me to elevate my skill level with the goal of becoming a ski instructor. My desire is to show new people the joys of what this sport has added to my life!

Work History

Restaurant Team Lead

Prairie Smoke and Spice
07.2021 - 05.2024

From the moment high school let out for the summer until the day I had to be back in the fall I toured across western Canada with the country's most award winning world BBQ Champion. I prepared and served BBQ to thousands of people daily working 16 hours a day, 7 days per week when necessary, for the entirety of my summer vacation.


This past summer I was promoted to team lead and helped organize the crew, forecast daily product, train new staff, prepare food, work the grill, serve customers and have fun!

Family Business

My father started the Tool Shed Brewing Company out of our back yard Tool Shed over 12 years ago. I learned the importance of a strong work ethic and sacrifice at a young age as I grew up working weekends and after school cleaning, packaging, prepping food, labeling cans and essentially any and every job that was required to make our family business a success.

Interests


  • Volunteer Coaching


My mother is a professional, certified Mountain Bike Coach and I grew up watching people's eyes light up as they grew their passion for the sport through improved understanding and technique through her coaching I have been skiing since I was 4 years old and what I love most is showing other people new things, encouraging them to push their skill level and just breaking down a skill for someone to learn properly I love to volunteer for my mom and take the skills I've learned from her to skiing


  • Mission Trip Volunteering


I drove to Mexico last year with my church group Sun West, which was organized by AMOR, to build houses for the less fortunate families in Tijuana This trip had a massive impact on me, witnessing that of level poverty while being able to drastically improve that families life, really made me thankful for the life that I live


  • Team Sports


I have been playing volleyball from grades 7 to 12 I have a desire to win as a team, and volleyball taught me perfectly how to work as a team player and to be there for others when they need to rely on you in tough situations Like in any team, it's not just about my performance, It's about support, energy levels, cooperation, listening and helping others elevate for the benefit of everyone wining
