an intro......
I started skiing at the age of 3 and ski racing from 7 for Kendal Club. I now train with Ross and Alpine Race Academy. I have a passion for the outdoors, with a love for ski racing! I am focused and dedicated and when I compete, I naturally get nervous but I am learning to direct that, to strive for greater performance.
​
My coach Ross says this about me "We’ve discussed quite openly that she’s got a lot going for her in comparison to others her age and being willing to attack when others back off is a skill that for a ski racer, well, it’s not to be sniffed at - it’s rare."
​
I am also kind, like helping people and hope to inspire other children to race.
As there is a lack of snow in the summer, I moto X to keep my balance, hand-eye coordination and core strength on point.
​
I couldn't do any of the racing without sponsorship and my parent's help and support - so HUGE thanks there!
