Nina Williams
Pro climber Nina Williams is an avid and accomplished boulderer. In 2017, she made the first female ascent of the fearsome 45-foot highball Ambrosia (V11) in Bishop, California, and has traveled the world to send some of its toughest boulder problems.
“I enjoy getting outdoors as much as possible, and dedicate a lot of time to training in the gym. After 15 years in the climbing and outdoor industry, I also love helping climbers perform to the best of their abilities,” she says.
Based in Boulder, Colorado, Nina hails from New England, where she fell in love with climbing in the woods and competed at a local and national level. When she’s not climbing, she savors coffee and hanging out with her hedgehog.
