A Vermont native, sharing New England roots with Alps & Meters, Ryan Cochran-Siegle grew up fully immersed in the outdoors.
His mother Barbara Ann Cochran, a gold medalist herself, introduced Ryan to skiing at their family owned and community based mountain Cochran’s Ski Area - started by none other than Ryan’s grandparents in Richmond, VT.
Growing up on the hill, chasing his older siblings all over the mountain, Ryan’s skills quickly developed to land him a spot on the U.S. Ski Team. Ryan carries on the family tradition, with a résumé that consists of an Olympic silver medal, an FIS downhill win, two FIS podiums, and two Junior World Championships gold medals.
