I have been skiing since the age of 6 and have loved every minute of it.
In 2011, I was invited to join the British Disabled Ski Team Development Squad and started racing in November 2012 with my Mum as my guide.
Since then things have changed a great deal and I now have a wonderful guide in Brett Wild. He is in the Royal Navy and has been released for the next 4 years to guide me to the Paralympic games in Beijing 2022. We get on so well and I really can trust him to get me down a mountain safely and fast.
We also have a team of coaches, physiotherapists, a psychologist and managers, who are all helping us to reach our potential as Alpine skiers.
Sochi was a fantastic rehearsal for the Pyeongchang games, where my guide, Brett Wild and I were proud to have won three medals.
I have competed in two Winter Paralympics and two World Championships.
Our next big goal is Beijing in 2022 but there will be plenty of challenges between then and now!

Lockdown 2020
The British Championships in France was my last day on snow and the end to a very short race season.
Covid-19 Lockdown
As I sit and contemplate finishing off my University course work, before knuckling down to some serious revision for my end of year, online exams in May and June, I’m distracted by the thought of 667 days left before the 2022 Winter Paralympics in Beijing.
