Kyle Mercier

Hey! My name is Kyle Mercier. I am 19 years old born in New Mexico into a military family. I've traveled my whole life and absolutely love the outdoors. I grew up in a small town in Maine and decided to venture out for college. I attend the University of Utah for a degree in Finance. But the real reason I came out to Utah may be obvious to some, skiing!
