Stride is excited to welcome our newest Board Member!
Abigail Jewett is a student-athlete at Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire. She is a sophomore and on the Dartmouth Women’s Alpine Ski Team pursuing a major in government. This past summer, Jewett enjoyed mentoring for the Little Bellas mountain bike program in the Hanover, New Hampshire, area. She has also completed the DRIVE student-athlete leadership program through Dartmouth College. Jewett is passionate about giving back to the athletic community; she recognizes the need for female leadership in male dominated sports like ski racing, and hopes to provide such leadership to aspiring young athletes.
After graduating high school from Green Mountain Valley School, Jewett went directly to ski for the U.S. Ski Team for two years, while also beginning her undergraduate degree at Dartmouth. Jewett attended Dartmouth and skied for the National Team simultaneously for two years before deciding to attend college full-time to focus on her studies.
Jewett accomplished one of her biggest athletic goals when she started her first FIS World Cup Ski Race at the Killington Mountain World Cup in November 2018. After battling through a year-and-a-half-long injury, she competed in the 2019-20 EISA Alpine season for the Dartmouth Ski Team—where she earned a spot on the NCAA Skiing Championship Team. She competed in the 2020 National Collegiate Skiing Championships held in Montana in 2020.
