My name is Marat Washburn and I am from Steamboat Springs, Colorado. Moved from Washington DC in middle school where I started racing for the Steamboat Springs Winter Sports Club. I played soccer and baseball through high school but decided to stop when skiing became the sport I wanted to focus on. I took a post grad year with Green Mountain Valley School in Waitsfield, VT, where I would then go onto skiing for Bates College.
