BIO
Isabella "Bella" Wright was first named to the Stifel U.S. Alpine Ski Team for the 2021 season. Wright grew up skiing and ski racing in the west, out of Utah's Snowbird Sports Education Foundation, and showed fast skiing from a young age. She spent time on the National Training Group (NTG) when she was younger, where she excelled in all disciplines.
Wright has battled injuries throughout her career, but continues to come back stronger each time. She became an Olympian in 2022 and had her best season to date in 2023 where she posted her first World Cup top 10, a seventh place, at the World Cup Finals in Andorra.
Wright is trying to learn German and French. She was born and raised vegan and loves to cook, and is also a cat lover.
"My goals for the upcoming season are to qualify and compete in the 2022 Winter Games, qualify and compete in World Cup Finals, and continue to learn and build on my results from race to race!"
