ABOUT JULIAN

PROFESSIONAL SKIER / OWNER DISCRETE CLOTHING / FOUNDER PEAK SERIES

I taught myself how to ski in eighth grade, my background was skateboarding and I was oblivious to what mainstream skiing was.  I perfected my balance on my skis, then I perfected my balance in the air.  Naturally, once I had that established I basically tried to skateboard on skis.   So a day of skiing consisted of cliff and air searching - all day.  I'd usually get home at 9:00pm. 

I had no idea that skiing was influenced by racing and Corporations.  I still hang onto that innocence. 

I found that if I could be doing anything at any given moment, I would be skiing.  This behavior continues to this day, and it will continue until I am physically limited to maintain such a lifestyle.

In the last eight months I have been to Argentina, Chile, Jackson Hole, Vail, Aspen, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Alaska, and Whistler. Up until eight months ago the furthest east I had been was Colorado - furthest south was Tijuana - furthest north was Canada. Every place was amazing and I am addicted to traveling now. Top of the list now is Peru and check out Maccu Piccu. But you know what .. I still love coming home to Utah. Most of my friends, family, and beautiful mountains reside here. I am pretty much into anything that involves fun people in fun places (mostly outdoors), and hard workers. It could be with random rad strangers in a random place I have never been - or it could be sitting above Salt Lake City watching the sunset with good friends (maybe with some cold beer). Oh yeah, and I am great at rock, paper, scissors. And snuff is the way to my heart.

               The Uncertainty Of The Mountains Demands Greater
               Patience And Keener Perception Before It Discloses
               Whatever Mystery First Drew You Towards It.
