Summary
I'm a snowboard instructor seeking employment for upcoming snow season. I'm a level 2 snowboard instructor (SBINZ), and a level 1 ski instructor (APSI). I've also obtained my first aid cert, avalanche awareness cert and a coaching course with APSI. I have six seasons of experience teaching across New Zealand, Australia, and Japan. Being a snowboard instructor is my biggest passion; I want to develop in others the same love and joy I have for this sport. I have been working in team environments for over 10 years, and I excel at being a team player, as well as working autonomously to get the most out of my time at work. I believe I am a perfect fit for the job due to my strong work ethic, my adaptability to any situation, and my strong desire to make a career in instructing.
