My name is Kimberly Fasani-Britton, but I go by Kimmy Fasani and I was born on April 25. I grew up in Truckee, CA and my mom got me on skis when I was 2 years old. When I was about 7 years old my mom surprised me with a snowboard for Christmas. It became my routine to go out snowboarding after my ski races on the weekends with a close group of guy friends. When I was 12 years old I decided to stop skiing and stick with snowboarding. When I was 15 years old that same group of guy friends convinced me to start competing in USASA because I had a kind of “fearless” approach to snowboarding. After my first season competing, I realized how much I really loved the sport and made a choice to dedicate more time to learning tricks. I joined the Northstar snowboard team and  qualified for USASA Nationals.  To my surprise I won slopestyle in my age division 3 years in a row. This amateur success gave me the confidence and motivation to graduate early from high school in 2002 so I could dedicate more time to this newly found passion. I moved to Mammoth Lakes, CA in the fall of 2002 to attend Cerro Coso Community college and train in one of the best locations possible for snowboarding. After lots of hard work and determination, I was picked up by DC, Clif Bar, Smith, Skullcandy, and CTi. Along with the success snowboarding has brought me, I also made time to complete my education and I graduated from University of Phoenix Online with a Bachelor of Science in Marketing in July of 2008. Currently, I am focusing on a handful of contests per season, while also putting together a video part with Jeremy Miller and Stan Evans. The movie is called Stance and will be out in August of 2009.
