ASHLEIGH MCIVOR

2010 Olympic Gold Medalist and 2009 World Champion in Ski Cross, Ashleigh McIvor is a self-proclaimed “adrenaline junkie”. Growing-up on the mountains of B.C. she competed internationally in all four alpine disciplines in the 1999-2000 season before settling on ski-cross in 2003. In 2004 she won silver at her World Cup debut, impressing many as one of the youngest and fiercest competitors on the circuit.

An ambassador to her sport, Ashleigh is no stranger to being in the spotlight or on a runway. She modeled in the “Skiing is Sexy” fashion show in New York, has worked with fashion photographers and was featured in an hour-long EXPN program where they followed her around for a behind-the-scenes look at the X Games.

Ashleigh currently lives in Pemberton, B.C. and is studying business marketing at the University of British Columbia. In her spare time she enjoys downhill mountain biking, dirt biking and surfing…like a true adrenaline junkie would.
