fav. trick?
Really, my favorite trick is just to go faster than people even if they're strait-lining it.

Warm up?
I sprint in the mornings and stretch whenever an opportunity presents itself

Inspiration?

My coach
James Norbeck inspires me. He has knee injuries and used to wiegh 400lbs; he lost the pounds, still snowboards and has a 3.5 GPA in college... and he's better than me.

Books?
Currently I am reading The Family Tree by Sheri Tepper but I'm also reading my favorite series, The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan

snowboarding video?
My favorite is by far "Tight Cuts/ Dope Riders"

free style
I grew up in NE Portland OR
I go to Cleveland High School, will be going to Mount Hood Community College this summer, art major. I started snowboarding on thanksgiving of 6th grade, 1996.
James Norbeck is my coach. The best advice he gave me is

"don't be afraid to go fast"
what do you do when you are feeling down?
My coach (who is also my car ride to practice) won't let me be down. He says "cheer up or walk home."

new moves?
I'm working on a seatbelt grab but trying to get a solid lien air.

what is the universe saying to you? Go big.
