We couldn’t do half of what we do here at NENSA if it wasn’t for our awesome staff!

Kait grew up in Elmore, Vermont adventuring on skis with her friends and family. She participated in the Stowe BKL program before joining the Craftsbury Nordic Ski Club as a junior and later competing for Bowdoin College on the EISA circuit. Prior to joining NENSA, Kait skied professionally with the Craftsbury Green Racing Project (GRP) for 6 years during which time she earned a national title, competed in 33 World Cups, and qualified for the 2018 Olympic Team. In addition to competing for the GRP, Kait also worked with young people at the Craftsbury Outdoor Center coaching youth ski and bike groups and organized a summer citizens trail race series. Throughout Kait’s ski career she participated in many NENSA events and is thrilled to now be joining the NENSA staff team. She looks forward to meeting and connecting with people throughout New England, facilitating a strong and inclusive community, and creating fun reasons to ski and be active.

Justin grew up on skis in his backyard and down the road at Indian Hill, where he chased his older brothers and sisters, in Barneveld, New York. He started racing in the BKL as a lollypopper and quickly fell in love with gliding fast on skis. He raced for the Holland Patent High School before spending his senior year at the Stratton Mountain School. During these years he raced for both Mid-Atlantic and New England at Junior Nationals where he had numerous All-American Results.
Justin went on to attend Middlebury College, where he raced at two NCAA Championships, Junior Worlds and a World Cup. After college Justin ventured West to explore the mountains with both cross-country and telemark skis. After a winter of skiing and grooming and skiing trails in Whitefish, Montana he returned East to take a job coaching at the Green Mountain Valley School in Waitsfield, Vermont. He remained there for eight years and was a part of many Junior National and World Junior coaching and waxing staffs. After GMVS he pursued his passion for mentoring and waxing skis for the best juniors in the US, traveling to cool places like Kazakhstan, Romania and Central Europe.
Justin looks forward to working with the New England Nordic Ski Association and sharing his passion for skiing and adventure.
