Meet the Founder

Isha Ghiya

Founder

I have been volunteering at Adaptive Sports at Mount Snow since I was 12 years old, when I started as a Peer Buddy. At 16, I became an Assistant Adaptive Ski Instructor, and when I turn 18 years old, I will be old enough to be a Lead Adaptive Ski Instructor. I have successfully achieved PSIA Alpine Level 1 Certification and PSIA Adaptive Alpine Level 1 Certification.

During 9th grade, I founded this nonprofit to support adaptive ski programs nationwide. Through this organization, I help spread the joy of skiing that I have witnessed firsthand as it transforms lives through adaptive programs. This website is based on my experiences, extensive research, and the experiences of others. I hope to provide students, their respective loved ones, and the instructors/peer buddies with an enriching experience on the slopes.
