About Me

• I am a motivated and hard-working individual with confidence and good people skills. I am passionate about everything skiing, and I love being immersed in a winter environment. I am a good listener and I am committed to being an instructor who can teach fun, challenging and rewarding lessons to catalyse clear progress in my student’s skiing.

Ski Experience

• 2018/2019 – Mt Hutt – New Zealand

I spent the season based in Mt Hutt strengthening my own skiing ability beyond my training for the Level 2 CISA standard by teaching friends.I took a volunteering Adaptive Ski course as an introduction as to how skiers with disabilities can access the sport. I am keen to further my adaptive ski teaching qualifications.

Level 1 & Level 2 CSIA qualifications. Ski training course for level 3
