Finn Christiansen

I'm an amateur nordic skier with ambitions of becoming a professional. I'm taking a gap year before college in order to get a year of quality training and discover more about myself and what exactly I want to do in the future

my name is Finn and I'm from Minneapolis, Minnesota. I'm an aspiring cross-country skier and has already reached an elite level competing at Senior and Junior Nationals this past season as well as placing on the podium at the Minnesota State Championship. I decided to take a gap year next year before going into colligate skiing. I'm spending my time at a school in Vermont, Green Mountain valley School, which turns about to be pretty expensive. Not to mention the expensive equipment that's required to stay at a high level in competitive skiing. I don't have a lot of money right now and need help to get off the floor and continue my dream of becoming an Olympic skier. I'm a disciplined and determined skier and if my love for the sport remains I have no doubt I will be able to make an Olympic team. This could be a good opportunity to partner with a young athlete before they are overly successful and help them get off the floor.
