Gavriel’s Bio
Hi I am Gavriel! I live at Smuggler’s Notch, VT and I love to ski with the other SNSC (Smugglers Notch Ski Club) kids or my parents. I compete in free ski comps and I also race. However, I don’t like to think of myself as just a ski bum, we spend a third of the year on the island of Cyprus, where I was born. I speak Russian and Greek, and English, and I feel just as at home in Cyprus snorkeling with the fish or foraging for wild asparagus, as I do bushwhacking in the back woods of Vermont.
My Core Values

- Willing to listen to any ones advice
- GIGGLE to the little things
- Don’t let anything stop you from achieving your goals
- NEVER STOP POLL FLIPPING

- Get back up when you fall down
- Listen more than you talk
- Never stop exploring because the best fish could be on the other side of the river
