Happy Mother’s Day to all the Moms out there! ❤️ celebrating the true gift of being a mom today, and all the joys and challenges that come along with it. This is one of my favorite shots of my babies. This is also my first Mother’s Day without my mom. Lots of emotions but I’m holding these memories tight and hugging my (mostly grown-up) babies as much as I can without making them uncomfortable 😬🥰🤗
Not only is @barrettcc one of the most influential and accomplished snowboarders of all-time, she’s also a true pioneer for women and action sports with @Nike ☑️
On her resume is the brand’s second-ever signature sneaker given to a woman, a sequel to that model, and a wealth of stories to share about her time with the Swoosh.

just dropped a new story on @soleretriever that I had a blast researching and writing. Shout out to @eastbay.archive for sparking the idea. Saw an amazing pair of old ACG shoes called the Air Barrett Christy and had no idea ACG had ever given a signature sneaker to an athlete. Started digging into it and realized Barrett Christy was only the second woman to get a signature sneaker in Nike history after Sheryl Swoopes. She even drew her own logo. FLEX. Member of the first USA snowboarding team at the 98 Winter Olympics, one of the most decorated competitors in @xgames history, Pop-Tarts box cover athlete, and underrated sneaker legend. A true All Conditions Gem. Check out the story now and peep the deadstock pair of Air Barrett Christy 2s she sent for @katyazajac ❤️🔥 thank you @barrettcc !! 🏂🥇
@baldfacelodge LADIES WEEK was pretty special. We had 3 generations of snowboarders in the mix with our #wayward crew… and a whole bunch of badass new friends 🔥thank you @baldisbeautiful , Pensiero family and the amazing staff for the experience!

Still processing this amazing week in Punta Cana with the @iam.vantage team! Proximity is Power. Regardless of what dreams and aspirations you have, being close those who are succeeding at the highest level accelerates your own growth and success. So grateful for the opportunity to be on these leadership trips with these amazing people who continue to stretch my vision beyond what I perceive as possible!

WINTER OLYMPICS SPOTLIGHT! Where is Olympian, Hall of Famer, and X-Games multiple Gold Medalist, Barrett Christy Cummins today? She is a Senior Marketing Director with Vantage building an amazing second successful career! Congrats @barrettcc ! #Vantage #VLife
Another @xgames in the books! I’ve been to at least 25 of these and a few summer X also. Too bad they don’t give medals for most attended 🙄 But I think I’m finally getting the hang of this. Did it right this year with @mia_danielle as my partner 🙌Looking forward to the next stage in the evolution of action sports with #xgamesleague and the most badass team of people behind it. If you had a hard time watching the women’s events, go find them online… they were AMAZING! Thanks to everyone who works so hard to pull this off, it’s always worth the effort to get here and hang with old friends and new while witnessing all the extreme progression in person 🤙
My wish for 2026: to be more intentional with the steps I take toward my goals and dreams.
2025 brought big changes and a lot of growth—but if I’m being honest, there were still places where I felt stuck longer than I expected. You can’t create a new reality with the same mindset that built the old one.
I’m grateful to be in the right place with the right people—friends, family, and @iam.vantage business partners who truly lift each other up. Let’s move into this new year with intention and momentum.
One of my biggest intentions is to help more people get clear on their financial goals and build real action plans to achieve them—bringing more peace of mind and prosperity into 2026. No matter how you exited 2025, this new year is a chance to turn aspirations into action.
It might sound cheesy, but I’m done waiting for things to “fall into place.” True wealth is a feeling—security, freedom, and less worry.
Temple reminded me of something his dad drilled into them: The 7 P’s—Proper Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance. 🥂 to that… and all the other P’s.
Prosperity. Progress. Peace. Positivity. Perseverance. …and more Play. ✨

It’s been a busy month, and tbh, I still haven’t fully settled into processing the loss of my mom last month. But I know her love carries me forward, and her belief in me inspires me to keep pushing beyond my comfort zone. 💛
A few recent highlights that stretched me in the best possible way — and were 100% worth it…
🏔️ @_wsssm_ Celebration Dinner & Fundraiser I had the honor of attending as a guest Olympian. In a ski-heavy room with absolute legends — Phil & Steve Mahre, @armstrong.deb , @markbathum , and more — it was very cool to represent snowboarding and the impact our community has had on winter sport enthusiasm in the PNW. 🏂
🌴 @iam.vantage Event — Oceanside, CA I’ve been to quite a few of these events over the last 5 years in the business, but this one hit different. So much momentum right now. Being in small rooms with big industry leaders is powerful.
When I was asked to emcee our Friday session, I almost took the easy road and said, “no thanks.” But I’m so glad I said YES. I got to introduce our founder, president, and several top brokers — and share a bit of my story and why this work matters to me.
I’m excited for more opportunities to stretch what’s possible in 2026. 🌟 #comfortzone #snowboarding #winter sports #financialeducation #mindset
Owner of the longest running women’s pro model @barrettcc talks about the “shrinking and pinking” fate of women’s graphics and products in the 90s on episode 2 of Going Off: The Board Graphic Revolution.

My mom, Gray Silver, passed away peacefully on October 19th after complications from a stroke a month earlier. It all happened so fast — she was still sharp, strong, and active at 84, zipping around in her new car and still working.
I’m so grateful for the time we had together this summer and in her final weeks. True to form, she had everything planned and organized — thoughtful to the end. She never wanted to be a burden, and she left this world on her own terms.
Mom was part of a generation of women who had to fight for respect in their work and even for control of their finances. She did it all with strength and grace, although at times I know she felt rage and frustration. She taught me independence, responsibility, and the value of believing in myself — even when my path looked nothing like everyone else’s.
As my grief turns to gratitude and relief, I take comfort knowing she’s at peace. I will miss her terribly ❤️
I know so many people now going through the process of caring for and saying goodbye to parents and loved ones. Beyond the struggle it truly is an opportunity to appreciate life in the present, and the people we choose to spend it with. Cheers to women who lead by example, live on their own terms, and leave their families better equipped for life 🤍💫
