Personal Thoughts
At age twenty-seven I am just entering the prime years of my career as a ski racer. I have
successfully battled to overcome major injuries over the past few years, and although I have
had good results I have not yet tapped my full potential. I have worked hard on strength
training, and it shows in my steadily improving results. I also spent three weeks extensively
testing equipment, and have chosen both Elan and Nordica. I believe this dynamic combination of
skis and boots will greatly enhance my future performance. With two World Championships
and the Olympics in the next three years, I feel I am poised for great results. I am looking for
other sponsors who want to be a part of this winning team, and who would like to support me
on the road to becoming the best World Cup Alpine racer in the world.
