How long have you been skiing?
I've skied for 14 years and first started when I was 3. I absolutely love the sport and have been racing around the country for the past 7.5 years.

What first attracted you to the sport?
Technically it was my parents interest in it that first got me started. However, I chose to keep going simply because of how enjoyable every session is. It's always fast paced and different each time, plus the mountains are a beautiful place to be.

When did you first get involved with the simulator?
I first went on the simulator back in May when my home slope's lift broke and I came to try it out. Like most people I, found it tricky at first but was enjoying it within 5 minutes. I was really keen to get involved with such a great piece of kit and started teaching on it that weekend.

What’s the best thing about the sim?
The best thing for me has got to be how easy it is to spot small mistakes and give detailed feedback. Each user is only ever a few metres away and the changes to their technique is instantaneous. They always come out of the bindings having made massive improvements and with a big smile on their face (even if they are a little bit tired).

What other hobbies do you have?
My main other hobby is baking. I absolutely love making big, highly decorated, celebration cakes for family and friends and challenging myself with more complex, technical recipies.

What was the last song you listened to?
The Lakes by Taylor Swift. (I'm a big Taylor Swift fan and have recently done my gold DofE in the lake district so really love this song).

And what was the last movie you watched?
I watched The Meg a while back but I'm going to see No Time To Die with friends on the 8th October which I'm very excited for.

Where will you be skiing this coming season?
Les Arcs in France (hopefully).
