Short Bio:

I learnt to ski at age six at my local dry slope Hillend, Edinburgh. I developed through the regional and national circuits on artificial and indoor events. Then, at age twelve, I ventured onto snow, training abroad with FAST (Focused Alpine Scottish Ski Training), BSA and at Austrian racing camps, and attending many races in France, Italy and Scotland as a children's racer.

Now from season 2015/16, I am entering my first year of FIS, and have joined Team Evolution, where I am now working alongside numerous other national team athletes. Training is now mainly in Austria, where I am learning many new skills on and off the slopes.

It’s exciting times ahead, and I can't wait to see what the future holds.
