A Word from Katie Davis

I have had a passion for writing that began from my career in high school as my school publication’s Editor-in-Chief to continuing my craft writing strategically in my Public Relations career. After growing up skiing in Western New York from the age I could walk, I always knew I wanted a career that closely involved skiing. Luckily, after moving to Boulder, I quickly learned about the outdoor industry and the rest is history. It’s my dream to get to talk about skiing nearly every day, and dovetail my passion for the sport into my career. When I’m not writing, you’ll find me in a myriad of countries, likely traveling solo. When I can combine my travels with an outdoor adventure, you’ll find me at my happiest.
