Blank Collective Films' own site credits her in 'Feel Real' (2022) alongside fellow database athletes Tonje Kvivik, Jess Hotter, and Cody Townsend. She co-founded The Blondes, one of the first all-female backcountry ski crews, with Janelle Yip and fellow database athlete Tonje Kvivik after moving to Revelstoke, BC -- their self-shot films won the People's Choice Award at the Whistler Intersection Film Festival, catching Matchstick's attention. Raised at Troll Resort, a small northern BC hill founded by her Norwegian-immigrant grandfather and later run by her mother after his passing; she and her siblings skied instead of taking the 45-minute school bus on powder days. Now based in Squamish, BC, and a commercial helicopter pilot since earning her license in 2019, flying for a local company in the off-season. Equipment: The North Face (apparel) and Smith Optics confirmed via her official athlete pages -- Smith specifically lists her personal gear picks as the Squad MAG goggle and Method Pro Mips helmet.
