Kheri

Born in Amsterdam but raised in the suburbs of New York, Kheri Tillman has been skiing since she was 6. With a husband who was a ski instructor at Beaver Creek Mountain in Colorado, their children, a 10 year old boy and 2 girls ages 8 and 5, began skiing early and really enjoy any vacation that gets them outdoors.

As a marketing and sales executive at Heineken USA, travel is a mainstay for Kheri. Finding family vacations that are easy to plan and that everyone can enjoy, is a must. Kheri is eager to share her tips and thoughts on how to make the best of any family trip, espically ski trips to Park City.
