Ski history
I first skied when I was 11 and went on a few holidays with my family after that. My love for skiing was really born when I was 18 and decided not to go to uni and got my ski instructor and ski patrol qualifications instead, from then on I was hooked! I worked for 2 winters at Panorama as a ski instructor, spending my summer on Vancouver Island living and working in Tofino. I also moved to New Zealand and did a winter season in Queenstown.
Favourite ski safari
I love experiencing beautiful nature and scenery while skiing. Time on Vancouver Island paired with Whistler or exploring both skiing and the Fjords in Norway - for example on our Ski & Fjord Explorer Safari - is a perfect combination of this.
Best mountain moment
Heli skiing in Panorama was definitely a day to remember. The backcountry options are phenomenal and the vertical drops are incredible.

Nothing set in stone yet, but Japow is on the list.
Interesting fact
I have seen Moose and Lynx on the slopes at Panorama.
Top ski tip recommendation
Don’t tuck your thermals into your ski boots, you can get really bad bruising! (I learned the hard way).
