Michelle Parker (born April 10, 1987) is a pro-skier from Truckee, California, USA. She started skiing in her home resort Squaw Valley Ski Resort.[1] At the age of 15, she realized that her passion was for freeskiing.[1] In later years she has competed in U.S. Freeskiing open, X-games and Red Bull Cold Rush.[1] After a few years, she left the park, and went to the big-mountain.
