About
<div>I learned to ski when I was 44, started teaching skiing at 58. And I'm just an average athlete. So if I can become a certified ski instructor, so can you -- or you can at least become as good as I am! My biggest rush is to take someone from the learn-to-ski bunny slope all the way to the black diamonds. I can look at them, be proud of them, be happy for them, and say to myself, "I was a big part of that."
When I was a grown-up, before I was a ski instructor looking for a substitute for growing up, I was a management consultant, roaming around boardrooms and telling a bunch of executives how to run their companies. What I do now is far more rewarding, because the people I'm dealing with listen, and they try, and they care. I know you will too -- and I'll help you get a lot better. Come ski with me!
