Born to Robyn and Mark Moltzan, and from Minnesota, Moltzan began racing at Buck Hill, south of Minneapolis. She competed at the World Championships in 2015 at Beaver Creek, finishing twentieth in the slalom.[1] A month later she won gold in the slalom at the Junior World Championships at Hafjell, Norway.
