What does SheShredsCo mean to you?

SheShreds CO to me is not only a way to become a better athlete/ snowboarder but its a better way to support other girl athletes, and be supported. Snowboarding hasn't always been a female dominant sport and having the support of SheShreds and the other female athletes and SheShreds followers allows me to be confident in my abilities and pushed me to want to become a better snowboarder. It is an opportunity for me as a female snowboarder to thrive in making new connection and friendships with other female snowboarders.

What drives you to do your sport?

I have always loved snowboarding since I was little. Growing up watching my idols snowboard has always driven me to become the best snowboarder i could possibly be. This also has made me feel like i have something to prove to myself that when i put my mind to something i can accomplish it. Snowboarding has always been my escape from reality, my troubles and stresses release when i'm on the mountain, its feels like i cant be touched. I love the relationships and people it has brought into my life. I am so thankful for snowboarding and all the amazing opportunities i have been blessed with.
