<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

Name:<\/strong> Megan Takeda<\/p>\n

Hometown:<\/strong> Castle Rock<\/p>\n

Lift location:<\/strong> Tiehack<\/p>\n

Do you ski or snowboard?<\/strong> I ski. I\u2019ve been skiing since I was about 10.<\/p>\n

What brought you to Aspen?<\/strong> It\u2019s my first season and I\u2019m loving it. I just have a long winter break between semesters at the University of Denver and I\u2019ve always wanted to do this. And, obviously, the skiing out here. My dad did this when he was in his 20s. I head back to school in February.<\/p>\n

Will you come back?<\/strong> This is the one long break I have, but I think I\u2019ll definitely be back some day.<\/span><\/p>\n

What\u2019s your best day off in Aspen consist of?<\/strong> Going to Highlands and hiking the bowl. Oh my god, it\u2019s the best.<\/p>\n

Have you had any good experiences with guests lately?<\/strong> I met an Olympian, just casually. It\u2019s just like a five-second thing, like they\u2019re here and then they\u2019re out.<\/p>\n

How do you stay warm out here?<\/strong> Dance. Lots of dancing.<\/span><\/p>\n

How do you choose the music to play at the lifts?<\/strong> I don\u2019t really know the stations out here. Whatever we have a signal to and Dave picks the music, too.<\/p>\n

What do you like most about working here?<\/strong> I get to talk to all the people who come through here, and the people I work with are really cool. I\u2019ve met a lot of cool people working with them and going ski with them is great.<\/p>\n
