First skiing experience – I was about 5 but all I can remember was having a bright yellow and orange all in one suit that I liked a little too much.

Favourite ski experience – When you wake up, look out the window to blue skies and know it’s to be an epic day.

Notable achievements in skiing – Inventing the pistol Flip, that’s it so far.

Who do you admire in skiing – I look up to riders who push the boundaries of the sport. Also anyone just riding for the right reasons and enjoying themselves.

Funniest thing seen on snow – Probably just the amount of people I’ve seen try a back flip for the first time and land straight on their heads. If I could montage them together that would be a great video.

If I weren’t skiing, I’d be - At University stuck in lectures thinking about skiing.

Favourite ski movie — Propaganda

Best competition you ever entered – I'm planning on doing the U.S open this season.
