Biography:  Well I basically started snowboarding at Milton Keynes and worked from there, doing local comps around the UK.  I then got on to the British team which is when I started travelling and snowboarding outside of the UK - in real mountains!  I'm hoping to make a living out of snowboarding and training to get to the Olympics.  It's all about having fun, which I am so I'll keep going!
