Sasha DiGiulian is a Boulder-based professional climber and Red Bull athlete. After an illustrious competitive climbing career that included a world title, Sasha attended Columbia University where she studied non-fiction creative writing and business. While getting her degree, she maintained her career as a professional climber, transitioning into a role that involved pushing the limits of big wall climbing and telling those stories through social media and content creation. Along with peers Alex Honnold and Tommy Caldwell, Sasha has helped push climbing in to the mainstream, representing a strong voice for women in particular. Sasha and Payson sat down in her dining room to chat about all of these topics, along with some of her most harrowing adventure stories, how she trains, time management, and aspirations for the future.
