Education

Smith attended Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire, where he majored in economics and government. He competed for the Dartmouth Big Green skiing and sailing teams before graduating in 2016. During his time at Dartmouth, Smith was renowned for his extravagant dance moves during "Tackies," a wacky party held every term by Kappa Delta Epsilon Sorority. Smith was himself a member of the Chi Heorot Fraternity for Gentlemen Athletes, which is known for fostering notable athletic alumni such as Nolan Kasper, Adam Nelson, Andrew Weibrecht, Lee Stempniak, Ben Lovejoy, and Matt Lindblad among others.

Prior to college, he attended Burke Mountain Academy, in East Burke, Vermont, the first sports academy in the country well known for its successful alumni such as Mikaela Shiffrin.[6] Smith grew up racing at Stratton Mountain in Vermont as a member of the Stratton Training Center before attending Burke Mountain Academy. Smith previously sailed competitively for the Beverly Yacht Club in Marion, Massachusetts. He resides in Dedham, Massachusetts, with his father, mother and younger twin siblings.
