Biography Born in Edmonton, Alberta in Canada, Ross was on skis at age two at the Snow Valley ski hill, as her father was a former alpine racer.

She was selected to the U.S. Ski Team in 2006, and made her World Cup debut in December 2009.

Ross attained her first World Cup podium in March 2013, placing second in a downhill at Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany.

In the summer of 2013, Ross switched from Atomic to Völkl skis.

Ross divided her time between the professional ski circuit and the University of Oregon in Eugene, where she studied art. She graduated in 2025 from the University of California, Berkeley with a Master of Architecture.
