Josh Kent

has been passionate about skiing and snowboarding since the age of 7. Over the years, he has dedicated countless winters to exploring mountain areas and resorts all over the globe. Some of his favorite inbound ski spots include Palisades Tahoe (California), Big Sky Resort (Montana), Discovery Ski Area (Montana), Jackson Hole Mountain Resort (Wyoming) and Pebble Creek Ski Area (Idaho). Josh currently lives between Idaho and California with his partner, Kristine, and their snow pup, Sumo.

For years, Josh worked as an instructor at Pebble Creek Ski Area in Idaho, teaching both kids and adults the joys of skiing and snowboarding. The story of Sally was inspired by the little things young skiers say and experience while flying down a mountain.

These days, Josh enjoys skiing with his grown children — Kyle, Caroline and Tyler — while continuing to coach and spend time on the slopes with his niece and nephews — Naivee, Nash, Knox and Nevin. Whether skiing for fun or coaching, he loves sharing his passion for the sport with the next generation.

Sally is inspired by Josh’s niece, Naivee. Naivee learned to ski at the early age of three. To keep up with her three older brothers, Naivee quickly learned to overcome any fears and to send it on the mountain. Today she can be seen crushing black diamond runs or enjoying a cookie around the fire after a full day of skiing. Josh is hopeful that Send it Sally Goes Skiing will encourage other young readers like Naivee to learn to ski or snowboard and to love the thrill of winter sport adventures.
