w w w. d i s t i n c t ly m o n ta n a . c o m 85 A great day for me always ends with…the sigh of com- fort that only sliding out of my ski boots can provide. Most people don't know that my job…which starts at 4 a.m., gives me the opportunity to skateboard down the center of Main Street. "Carpe diem!" for me means…having a plan, yet remain- ing nimble for life's curve balls and opportunities. When I was a boy I wanted to be…an astronaut. I was five years old when Armstrong walked on the moon and it's still one of the coolest things I've ever seen. The one bad habit I can't shake is…Dairy Queen. A me- dium vanilla cone dipped in chocolate makes me twitch with excitement. Even my best friends don't know that I…cannot catch or throw a ball to save my life. On ski patrol the most fun I had was…throwing bombs at dawn and skiing untracked powder before the public showed up. Once the snow melts…I'm far, far away from Bozeman, usually in one of the "stans" climbing or working on Iqra Fund, the nonprofit I co-founded to educate girls in Pakistan. The thing that makes me laugh most is…remembering all the stupid things I've done, like face-planting below the lift on a green run in my ski patrol uniform. Someday I am really going to…learn how to type with more than two fingers. Reincarnation? OK, bring me back as a….raven. As far as I can tell they've got it figured out: lots of play, lots of food, and lots of company, plus a conniving intellect.
