In a season where staffing shortages and strong demand created myriad challenges (and opportunities) for ski areas across North America, these 10 20-something rising stars showed their strengths. Empathy, humility, a keen ability to problem-solve, and a deep passion for the industry are common traits among this year’s “10 Under 30” class, who hail from little hills like Yawgoo Valley, Rhode Island’s only ski area, and major operations like Tahoe’s 4,800-acre Heavenly Resort. This year, we asked the inimitable Halley O’Brien to interview our class of 2022. Recognized as a “10 Under 30” herself in 2011, Halley understands on a personal level the way raw talent and enthusiasm can be shaped into a truly impactful career in the industry. We could think of no one better suited to speak with this crop of young, hungry snowsports professionals, who are ready and able to take our industry through its next evolution.
