I started skiing at the age of 5 at Hillend Ski Centre in Edinburgh and quickly joined the local race team LSRA. After many years skiing on dry slope I turned my attention to snow as well and through training with FAST and BSA I managed to get on the British Children's Team. I represented the team four times, twice in both the Czech Republic and at Topolino. Moving into FIS I was selected for the Scottish Team and also the British Junior Team and was so proud to earn the spots to represent Team GB at the European Youth Olympic Festival in Liberec and the World Youth Olympics in Innsbruck. Last season with Ambition has been my best to date. Making big improvements in GS and in Slalom and getting selected to go to the World Junior Champs was a great experience. To be on the British Team is a great privilege and I am proud to represent the team.
