Winter Term Director / U10-U12 Alpine Head Coach / Art Tutor
Born and raised in Leland, Michigan, Beatty grew up ski racing at Sugarloaf Mountain (in Michigan-- not to be confused with the less famous resort in Maine!) before migrating east, enrolling at Colby Sawyer College in New Hampshire. She was a dual-sport athlete (ski racing and softball- pitcher) and she competed for four seasons for the Chargers, captaining the Ski Team both her junior and senior years. After receiving a BS in Environmental Science and a BA in Art Education (K-12), Beatty moved on to coach a talented pack of U14 alpine athletes at Suicide Six in Vermont. She then took over the reins as Program Director at Suicide Six, a position she held for three years, before moving to the Okemo Mountain School, where she served as Head Women's Alpine Coach. After two seasons at Okemo, Beatty moved to the Green Mountain Valley School (GMVS) in Vermont, where she served as the Head Junior Alpine Coach and Assistant Director of the Sugarbush Ski Club in Warren, VT. Two years later, Beatty moved to Lake Placid, where she taught Art and served as Head Women's Alpine Coach at the National Sports Academy for three years, before assuming her position as Director of Development and U10-12 Alpine Head Coach at NYSEF. Beatty has recently transitioned out of Development Director and into Winter Term Program Director!
The most important aspect behind her move to NYSEF was all about the close-knit ski racing family in the Adirondacks: "Ski racing is all about community, and the support that's given to our area youth. There's such a sporting legacy in the Tri-Lakes Region, and everyone buys in to the philosophy of raising young athletes." On our youth alpine programs, Beatty notes, "The daily freeskiing opportunities here at Whiteface and Gore are by far more exciting and diverse than any place I've skied on the East Coast." So what does that mean for developing skiers? "Easy," says Schlueter, "our athletes never get bored, and they're always challenged. The fact that young racers can chase talented coaches around such a big, diverse on-snow playground means that we're building well rounded skiers with a great base that are simply excited to be out there, having fun. That's the secret to our athletic development-- fun!"
In her free time, Beatty enjoys being on, near or around the water or in the garden, or spending time with her family.

Alpine Head Coach
Purcell, originally from Goshen, NY, grew up skiing at Holiday Mountain in Monticello, NY. He has served in a vast number of different positions throughout his coaching career, ranging from grassroots programs to coaching at the international level. After beginning his career at NYSEF and Northwood School, Purcell went on to serve as Head Coach at Burke Mountain Academy until he was called up to coach with the national team. He worked with both the U.S. Ski Team and the Canadian National Team at the Europa Cup level before returning to the junior level, serving as Head Women’s Coach at the Stratton Mountain School — a position he held for several years. He also was the Head Women’s Coach at Dartmouth College.
In 2006, Purcell decided to move his family west, where he was Head Alpine Coach at both the Park City Ski Team and Rowmark Ski Academy in Utah. In 2013, Purcell joined Team Duke USA to privately coach U.S. Ski Team member Hailey Duke. After nine years in the West, he decided that it was time to head back east, closer to home. Most recently, Purcell has worked as U16 Alpine Coach at the Green Mountain Valley School where he and his wife also served as dorm parents.
Purcell is excited to get settled in Lake Placid. “Returning to NYSEF culminates a 37 year journey back to where it all began,” stated Purcell. “I love the Adirondack Mountains and, more specifically, Whiteface Mountain. It’s rugged beauty makes for a perfect setting to nurture aspiring ski racers. It’s an ideal teacher, offering a variety of terrain-- the mountain does the talking.” On the subject of joining the team at NYSEF, Purcell “couldn’t be any happier. I am honored to serve the staff, parents and, most of all, the highly-motivated athletes.”
Now entering his 38th year of ski coaching, Purcell has seen many trends come and go, but the raw, athletic lessons which ski racing provides young athletes have remained a constant.
"I love to impart on my athletes why mountains exist. Ski racing is merely a facet or tentacle of what skiing as a whole offers. The 'academy mentality' is undeniably extreme-- it has its place, however, identifying with a broader idea, connecting with the bigness of skiing as a way to experience a mountain and nature while balancing athletic precision-- that's the big picture to me. Ski coaching has taught me to be creative, to problem solve and to regularly take things outside of the box--all life skills within the vehicle of sport. Ski racing is well thought of as a character engineering opportunity. It breeds independent, thoughtful and constructive evaluators and thinkers, as well as the absolute need to work hard. Good racers can endure the elements and reach into deeper, inner places that will become major life milestones."

Born and raised in Plattsburgh, N.Y., Gavin attended National Sports Academy (NSA) in 8th grade and spent 4 years in the Winter Term Program (WT) beginning in 2013.

Since his time as an athlete, Gavin always knew NYSEF was going to be a part of his future. Soon after graduation (in December 2019), he began working with NYSEF as a full-time coach.

Freeride Program Head Coach
A Lake Placid native and '05 graduate of the Northwood School, JP has been coaching with NYSEF since 2008. He loves Lake Placid, freestyle skiing, and coaching aspiring athletes. "Living here in Lake Placid allows me to do all three of those on a regular basis," he writes. "I'm so lucky."
An avid mountain biker and golfer, JP simply loves being active outdoors.
On coaching, JP believes that through hard work, the guidance of a coach, and the collaboration of teammates, the sky is the limit.
"From start to finish, it's important for athletes to remain grounded by the values of respect for the natural and logistical elements that have provided opportunities, and to show compassion for fellow teammates, coaches, officials, and competitors," JP writes.
"Incredible joy can be achieved through the never-ending pursuit of progress. Although winning may be fun, it is not the true reward, but rather, an award. An award commemorates the true reward, which is the best performance of a person’s strongest talents at any given moment."

Spanish & Italian Tutor
Humanities Tutor
My first skiing was at Mt Whitney in Lake Placid in 1958 at age six, in rubber galoshes and bear-trap bindings! My sons skied there with NYSEF and the Lake Placid Ski Club just before it closed for good in the 1990s, one as a tele racer, and the other in cross-country. I ski back- and cross-country whenever I can and hope to continue it for many years. I’m more than lucky to be able to ski into the backcountry from my front door in Keene Valley.
I have a B.A with Honors in English from Kenyon College and a M.S. in Education from Wheelock College. I’ve taught in private and public schools across the country and here in the Adirondack region for thirty-five years and built environmental education into all of my classrooms. I’m involved in outdoor ed., in addition to my tutoring practice. I'm currently teaching about mountaintop fire towers (which made up the first New York State initiative to protect the Adirondack forest) and forest, farm, and watershed ecology. I write outdoor stories for Adirondack Life and The Adirondack Explorer, and I author a trail guide for The Adirondack Mountain Club.
We all love skiing and snowsports; let’s do all we can for our kiddos and our surroundings to ensure that the snow will keep falling!
