BILLY DEMONG
WORLD CLASS OLYMPIAN
Billy grew up in the Adirondack Mountains and began ski jumping
in the Lake Placid Ski Club. A cross country skier as soon as he
could walk he added the longer skis when he was eight and fell in
love with the sport of Nordic Combined.
When he was seventeen Billy relocated to Steamboat Springs to join a
team of inspired young athletes. Together they broke down
barriers, and Billy became America’s first Olympic Gold Medalist in
Nordic skiing.
After a World Cup career spanning five Olympic games, Billy served
as the CMO for Reynolds Cycling, a Utah based carbon fiber
cycling wheel manufacturer. While at Reynolds he helped the
brand regain consumer confidence and awareness through a
variety of strategic sponsorships and integrated digital marketing
strategies.
Having played a major role in developing USA Nordic Sports to
support the National Ski Jumping and Nordic Combined teams
from 2014 through 2022, Demong retired from his role as
Executive Director.
Demong currently resides in Park City, Utah with his two sons and
partner, Katie, who is a professor in Salt Lake City. In addition to
USA Nordic Sports he also serves on the Boards of The Great
Lakes Sports Commission and the National Nordic Foundation
(NNF).
