Short Bio: I first skied when I was 3 years old, on a family holiday and soon after that at the age of 4 I started skiing on dry slope with my school. Every year after that I went on my family holiday and was dragged along by my older siblings down ever hard slopes but I loved it!

By the time I was 8 I started racing on dry slope in schools and regional races. Soon after that we decided it was time I joined a club too so I started train Sandown park ski club , conveniently located just round the corner from where I live. From then on all I wanted to do was ski!

Soon I was going on training camps in Europe and started racing on snow too. Through good results I was selected for the British children’s ski team in 2008. I went through children’s skiing competing in British and some international races too, winning a couple of national titles along the way.

From there I followed the natural progression into the England alpine ski team as I started my FIS career. For the 2012/13 season I moved to train with ambition racing and with the help of great training facilities and coaches continued progressing over the next couple of seasons.
