### Snowboard Instructor @ Mammoth Mountain Ski Area
Jan 2014 – Jan 2014 | Mammoth Lakes, CA
Snowboarding is a passion I discovered too late in life. Choosing a line and then flying down a mountain is at the very least an exercise in extreme focus and meditation and at most a truly spiritual experience. My work as a snowboard instructor at Mammoth allowed me to share my joy and passion for this amazing sport with others.  It's invigorating to see the expression on someone's face when things finally click and they understand the joy that comes with gliding down a slope. The sport evokes a deep understanding and appreciation of nature, our place in it, and our duty to preserve it. And it's fun!
