Did you know...?

  • I could not live without…seasons.  And chocolate!!
  • My favorite place in the world is…the sugar house at my grandpa's farm.  
  • My dream vacation spot is…New Zealand
  • When traveling, the thing I miss the most is…Nils. 
  • My favorite meal is…long drawn-out pizza-making in the wood fired oven with my family.  With homemade ice cream after.  
  • My favorite television show is…I don't like TV.  
  • My favorite quote is..."Be here now."
  • If I were not an athlete, I would be…An artist/adventurer/farmer/itinerant design-builder. 
  • For the 2015 season, my goals are to keep improving on my results, get more consistent at shooting, qualify for more pursuits and mass starts, and to have more fun and just really enjoy the process and the crazy biathlon scene.
