Personal
Via Norman loves to be outdoors in all seasons of the year, winter being a favorite. They have been skiing at Stratton since the age of 3 and competed in moguls across the Northeast region until the age of 16. They also love rowing and were a Division 1 athlete and Team Manager during their time at the University of Rhode Island. Although Via does not actively row anymore, anything involving water sports is welcomed, such as paddle boarding and kayaking. Lastly, Via has a massive love for animals, especially their own dog, Mowgli. You may see Via and their partner walking around Townshend with a midsized black labradoodle at all times of the year!
