The team
Eva
Whistler Wander CEO
Ski Instructor & Guide
Born in Spain and after traveling the world for years without finding a place that conquered her, having lived in Australia, USA and London, Eva took a ski trip to Whistler in 2017. It only took her 10 days to fall in love with this wonderful place and know that skiing in these Mountains was what she wanted to do, turning his passion into a way of life.
She packed her life and followed her instinct, quitting her job in investment banking in London to start a life of skiing in Whistler.
Today, she is certified by the Canadian Alliance of Ski Instructors (CSIA) and the Canadian Association for Adapted Skiing (CADS), allowing her to teach people with physical and cognitive disabilities to ski.
Even so, Eva no longer teaches ski lessons herself, as she’s always present on each trip to make sure everything runs perfectly. She’s the one you’ll see the most during your stay and the one who’ll be there to welcome you upon arrival. She also loves to come watch you ski during your lessons to see all the progress you’re making!
