HOW CAN A U.S. BIATHLETE PURSUE TRAINING AT THE OLYMPIC LEVEL IN A SPORT THAT REMAINS RELATIVELY UNKNOWN TO NORTH AMERICA?
As a member of the Craftsbury Green Racing Project (or "GRP"), my biathlon training and racing is primarily funded by the generous efforts of the Craftsbury Outdoor Center and our team sponsor Concept2, the maker of the SkiErg, RowErg, and BikeErg (each of which I've heavily utilized in my training, especially during the summer of 2019 while returning from injury). The Craftsbury GRP consists of a "Row" division (the rowing team) and a "Snow" division (the Nordic skiing and biathlon teams). The COC provides each athlete on the team with housing, food, coaching, and travel support. In "exchange," athletes contribute to the Outdoor Center through volunteer hours, but this work does not nearly offset the support we receive from our team. A huge thank you goes to the Craftsbury Outdoor Center; thank you for making our journey in Olympic Sport possible.

I HAVE MANY ADDITIONAL SPONSORS TO THANK FOR PROVIDING THE FUNDING REQUIRED TO GET ME GOING IN BIATHLON...
Early on, the US Biathlon Development Program provided me with room and board. Higher Power Training in Eden Prairie, MN was instrumental by hosting a fundraiser event for me in 2017; thank you to the many individuals and organizations in my community who supported that effort, especially Nordic ski shops Pioneer Midwest (Osseo, MN) and Finn Sisu (St. Paul, MN), my home ski club The Loppet Foundation, and the retail design business InStore Design Display, and the racing brand of Fast Big Dog.
MY EQUIPMENT SPONSORS CONTINUE TO PROVIDE ME WITH THE BEST TRAINING EQUIPMENT ON THE MARKET:
Salomon and Finn Sisu have been in my corner since the outset of this adventure into biathlon in 2016. Salomon provides me with a fleet of S-Lab Carbon skis and boots, running shoes, and second-to-none service on the World Cup that allows me to modify or switch out equipment when necessary. Finn Sisu has outfitted me with Marwe Sport rollerskis for summer training and is my primary source for miscellaneous training needs. Farm to Feet socks and their 100% American supply chain joined my team in 2017. I was stoked to join Swix when they became my pole sponsor in 2020. Ministry of Nutrition has been my training drink mix supplier since February of 2022.
AND DON'T FORGET THE RIFLE...
Lost Nation R&D is my go-to spot for rifle parts and modifications. Operated locally in Craftsbury, LNRD is a sponsor of our Craftsbury biathlon team and also makes an affordable and fully modifiable Versatile Biathlon Stock that is exploding into both North American and European biathlon markets.
I WOULD BE REMISS WITHOUT MENTIONING OUR U.S. BIATHLON NATIONAL TEAM SPONSORS AND SUPPLIERS
Including our primary sponsor Ariens the #kingofsnow, our uniformand clothing supplier and team sponsor Maloja, and our suppliers Rudy Project (eyewear), Roeckl (gloves), and Auto Eder (vehicle fleet).
