Seamus’ Bio

My name is Seamus O’Neill, I am 17 years old and live in Moretown Vermont. I love skiing and I’m so thankful for it to be my life. I grew up always on the mountain doing whatever there was to offer. I started skiing at the age of 2 and joined the Mad River Glen Ski Program. I worked my way up as the years went on and I’m so happy to have done so. From best friends, to amazing coaches, skiing at MRG has become the biggest staple in my life. When I’m not skiing I’m either working out, biking, hiking, swimming, or in the classroom. I will be attending the Junior Freeride World Championships in Kappl Austria in the 2026 ski season and I’m so excited to not only represent America, but also Mad River Glen, the East Coast, and Flyin Ryan.
