Secret ski party

Founder

Sep 2024 – Present · 1 yr 7 mos · Jammu & Kashmir, India · On-site

Curating India’s most exclusive alpine experience
Secret Ski Party is a one-of-a-kind, invite-only luxury alpine festival set in the pristine powder of Gulmarg—one of the highest ski resorts in the world. It brings together a curated community of global explorers, creatives, entrepreneurs, and tastemakers for an unforgettable long weekend of skiing, adventure, fine dining, and celebration.
As Founder, I lead the concept, creative direction, guest curation, partnerships, and overall experience design. From powder skiing with private instructors and on-slope butlers to snow yoga at sunrise, moonlit snowmobile safaris, dinners inside igloos, and intimate après-ski gatherings—every moment is crafted for emotional resonance and storytelling.
Secret Ski Party blends luxury travel with community-driven celebration, immersive culture, and unforgettable mountain moments. It’s not just a party—it’s an experience that leaves a mark.
We’re building a new legacy of experiential travel in—and this is just the beginning.
