When asked for advice regarding how to achieve skiing success, Katherine provided the following quote:

“You have to do all the work and you have to be brave enough to put yourself out there… and sometimes a lightning bolt is going to strike from the heavens and it’s going to work out and sometimes it’s just going to be one of those days that it doesn’t work, but if you’re not willing to put yourself out there and put yourself in a position to be great, you’re never going to be great. – Molly Seidel “
