Sophia Rouches

ski

Sophia is a Pacific Northwest-based skier, mountain biker, and small business owner living in beautiful Bellingham, Washington. Growing up just 30 minutes from Snoqualmie Pass, every minute she didn’t spend at school was dedicated to exploring her local mountain. She’s turned that early passion for sliding on snow into a career chasing snow around the globe.

Sophia's passion for snow is equaled only by her passion for success. She recently bought a local sea kayaking company and is now the owner/operator of Moondance Sea Kayak Adventures. The perfect summer companion to her busy winter on snow, running Moondance allows Sophia to reset, heal up, and fine-tune her business chops while doing something she absolutely loves.

Passion Project

Sophia’s most excited about getting in front of the camera and being the representation in the ski industry that she lacked as a kid. More films about adaptive athletes, BIPOC folx, and people who haven’t traditionally had a space in skiing inspire her to do more herself. Sophia works with different non-profits in her community that support Latinx and migrant youth outside, including swimming, climbing, and exploring the Puget Sound.
