Jeff's Bio

Jeff's 11 years on the Canadian National Freestyle Ski Team (Aerials) were filled with highlights, including spots on the 1998, 2002 and 2006 Canadian Olympic teams, a fourth place at the 2002 Olympic Winter Games in Salt Lake City, a silver medal at the 2005 World Championships, 17 World Cup medals and two national titles.

Athletic Goals

To continue to stay very involved in my sport in retirement.

Favourite Olympic/Sporting Moment

Having five minutes of a medal in 2002—the time from when I landed my second jump to the time the score came up was unbelievable. Having it all come together under those circumstances was amazing.

Best Advice You've Ever Received

"Every Jump Counts.” Do not just go thought the motions—if you are going to do something do it with purpose.

Being an RBC Athlete means...

Being an RBC Olympian is an opportunity unequalled in sport. Having been an athlete all my life, I have a skill set based around sport and not the business world. With RBC…teaching us how the business world works is an opportunity I could only dream of.
