Backstory
Chris started skiing when he was three, so he doesn’t actually remember learning, just skiing. His family put down roots in Park City in 2001 and has been skiing here ever since. After 10 years of working in the Bay Area and skiing and climbing in the Sierras, he finally moved to Park City. He worked as a ski instructor for Deer Valley before joining the Jans team as Editor of jans.com, and he’s now our Ecommerce Manager. Chris loves staying updated on current gear, especially when it comes to writing about and testing new skis.
