Board of Directors

Born in the Bay Area, Brad grew up as a weekend warrior on the slopes of Alpine Meadows, where he was a member of the ski team and the ski team coaching staff as well as a volunteer for Achieve Tahoe through high school.  His passion for skiing continued into college, as a member of the Harvard Ski Team for four years.  Brad moved to Alpine Meadow full-time in 2020 and when he is not skiing or shoveling snow, he spends his time as in-house legal counsel to Percheron Capital, a private equity fund based out of San Francisco.

Brad joined the PTCF board in 2016 as a means of staying connected to the community while on the east coast and became the President of PTCF in 2020.  As one of the few board members with no children participating on the Palisades Tahoe Teams, Brad’s commitment to PTCF is driven by his desire to give back to a community that taught him how to work hard, compete and interact with teammates.  Through PTCF he hopes to share those same lessons with today’s youth and inspire a life-long passion for snow sports in others.
