Skier Profile: Heidi Bergmeyer

Ms. Heidi Bergmeyer newly joins us from New England, where she works at Mass General Hospital in the development office, raising money for breast, GYN and brain cancers. Ms. Bergmeyer started skiing when she was four, and gave it up for about 22 years, only returning to the sport about two years ago. She is enjoying her re-acquaintance with skiing and all the fun new gear. Ms. Bergmeyer met Ms. Kim Lamb while working at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, and they live close to one another. Welcome Heidi!

Snowboarder Profile: Tyler Gee

Mr. Tyler Gee newly joins the ranks from the mean streets of San Francisco CA. Tyler G has no relation to Warren G other than having a similar amount of street cred. Tyler is a northern CA local, shredding Sierra Cement for close to 3 decades. This will be his first time riding somewhere that does not rhyme with "Alifornia", "Olorado" or "Regon." Mr. Gee does it all: surfs, wakeboards, spearfishes, freedives, swims, bikes, runs. When not involved in various social movements, such as "Occupy Chairlifts" or "Occupy Skin Tracks", Tyler spends his time vigorously protecting the intellectual property rights of inventors, artists, and other innovators.

Snowboarder Profile: Katy Downey

Ms. Katy Downey is a Ski Holiday LEGEND. Katy can't wait to hit the French Alps on her vintage snowboard. She is looking forward to the Euro apres-ski, and plans to consume a lot of French wine, French fries, and French toast. When not on her snowboard, Katy is often performing on a stage, or on a table, or in the street. Ms. Downey gets to play a State Trooper in real life, which she loves. She has absolutely no jurisdiction in France but might try to handcuff someone anyway. Welcome back Ms. Downey!
