What do you enjoy most about working at STHS? This is such a fun team to work with. I feel pretty lucky to wake up every morning and be happy to go to work. I can’t complain about going heli-skiing on my days off either!
Tell us about yourself, what brought you to Revelstoke? My parents put me on skis when I was 4 and I haven’t stopped since. After a season ski instructing in Whistler, I decided I wanted to work in the industry. Shortly after that I got convinced by my boyfriend at the time (it was easy!) to do a season in Revelstoke. The skiing was epic that year and I fell in love with the community. I moved abroad for a few years but then found my way back to town. I like to say I came here for love, but stayed for the mountains!
What’s your favourite run at STHS? Tangiers Glacier should be on your bucket list (Selkirks North)
Fun fact you’d like to share with guests? Once, I couldn’t ski for a season due to a knee injury. To keep myself busy I hosted a radio show on Stoke FM, The Knee Deep Show. I played songs from ski movies and made sure people had a fun time at apres-ski. And recently I retired my old skis into shot skis.

What do you enjoy most about working at STHS? Definitely the skiing and the welcoming, supportive team. Plus my role is very diverse – every day is different so it makes it very interesting.
Tell us about yourself, what brought you to Revelstoke? I love white water, frozen or not. I’ve being guiding rafts for 14 seasons, so when the wife and I where looking to move to BC we started checking out Golden to get on the world-renowned Kicking Horse River. But my wife got a great job here in Revelstoke, so we moved here in 2006 and have been playing on the Illecillewaet River in the summers and STHS in the winters ever since!
What’s your favourite run at STHS? FFT or Tumbledown (Selkirks North)

What do you enjoy most about working at STHS? My incredible, hardworking, amazing colleagues. They’re not even colleagues anymore, they’re family.
Tell us about yourself, what brought you to Revelstoke? Growing up with a beach loving family, I was 22 when I first saw snow. Soon after I learnt to snowboard in New Zealand and eventually decided it was time to move to the mountains. After a year and a half in snowy Japan it was time for a new winter adventure. A friend recommended Revelstoke for the mountains, the terrain and the snow. If you can’t live in Japan forever, Revelstoke is the next best thing.

Tell us about yourself, what brought you to Revelstoke? I was finishing up university, studying tourism management just as Revelstoke Mountain Resort was opening for business.
