What have you been doing the last 5 years?-
I have been working in both Val d I’sere and Chamonix, running a ski school and working as an Instructor, I mix this with coaching other instructors through the Eurotest and their Basi levels, I use my time in the summer to work at a skydiving centre in the UK and coach on the glaciers.

Why are you passionate about skiing?

Its all about being outside for me. I try and spend as much time as possible in the mountains and skiing is a great way to get around the mountains and opens up huge amount of possibilities.
 

What do you love about coaching?

-Teaching and coaching have always been a massive part of my skiing life from my mid-teens. Having started out coaching younger athletes whilst I was still training, I soon realised my love of teaching and seeing others develop their skills and achieve their goals was my true passion.

I believe hard work and commitment play a massive part in peoples success and both the coach and trainee must those two attributes to succeed.

Best day ever on skis?

-Lapping the Fornet trees in Val d I’sere on a powder day with some good friends.

I feel biggest strength is my ability to motivate people to push themselves and always stride for better.

What do you bring to Team CDC?
