Kai Yeung

My name is Kai (He/Him)- I am a sophomore @ pitzer studying data science! I am a mediocre snowboarder, probably a better skateboarder, and a completely awful surfer. Super stoked to get as many people up on the mountains as possible!

Harrison Brown
Diversity & Inclusion MGR
Harrison (he/him) is a black skier who grew up in Maryland and New Jersey. He has never seen another black skier on the mountain. According to the National Ski Areas Association (NSAA) only about 1.5% of skiers are black. He thinks it’s because snowboarding seems like it has more steez. Reach out to him with questions about inclusion and accessibility in skiing.

Zach Roerden
Finance Manager
Zach (he/him) is a sophomore at CMC, born as a skier from the infamous “East Coast powder” in rural Massachusetts. On powder days, he can be found deep in the trees. On boring (non-snowy) days, he can be found on random side quests, taking naps, cooking/eating, and twiddling his thumbs awaiting the start of the season.
