If you are looking for a great mountain experience with a knowledgeable, friendly snow pro then I’m your instructor. I teach skiing to children and adults. In fact I have 3 kids of my own all under 10, so I’m good with kids. I am good with adults too! I’m the Operations & Training Manager at Mt Hood Meadows Ski Resort where I run the largest snowsports school in Oregon and help train our instructors to be better teachers and skiers. That said, I love working with beginners and advanced skiers alike, so let’s go skiing together!
