When people ask me what my favorite sport is-- they always expect me to answer with running; but that's not exactly the truth. I love skiing, and I have loved it since 1998 when I joined the Charlotte Breezer ski club. I initially joined to meet some people, and discovered a sport that I am passionate about.

Since 2002, I've joined every National Black Ski Summit hosted by the National Brotherhood of Skiers ( NBS) except when I was in for the four years while I was in surgical residency. It is because of Art Clay and Ben Finley and the NBS I not only found a sport I love, I found a family that has given me countless friends. This family grows every year.

If you're thinking about skiing or snowboarding as a sport you'd be interested in trying out-- you should take this as a sign and do it! Because no matter how many injuries, I can't imagine myself ever stopping.
