Aimee first started snowboarding when she moved to Washington DC in 2003, although an early passion for motorcross helped her develop a fearless approach to jumps. Having discovered snowboarding she rode as much as possible with friends from school and progressed from there.  A visit to a freestyle camp in Oregon saw her catch the eye of one of the coaches and lead to her turning pro. Now living in Ireland, Aimee is one of Team GB’s brightest hopes for the 2014 Winter Olympic Games in Sochi. Being comfortable being upside down meant Aimee bacame the first women to land a double backflip.  Her loves apart from snowboarding are surfing, cycling and chilling on the beach!
