I am the Head of Client Services at Ski Solutions and have been looking after everything post-sales since 2019. Following a lifelong love of skiing, it made sense to work in an industry that I have a huge amount of passion for.
As a Scottish native, I first discovered a love for the sport aged five in the Cairngorms, though I can’t say I enjoyed the ice and gale-force wind. Thankfully, my parents preferred the more favourable conditions in the Alps, and I was lucky enough to go every Easter with the family during my childhood.

After studying Tourism Management at university, I spent two years teaching English in Sapporo, Japan, the host of the 1972 Winter Olympics and the snowiest big city in the world. The city has great access to the mountains, and I was able to ski the incredible resorts of Rusutsu and Niseko every weekend. With an average of 14m snow each season, the powder was absolutely amazing!
Since returning to the UK, I’ve travelled the world in search of the most exotic ski locations including Argentina, Kazakhstan, Bosnia and cat-skiing in Kyrgyzstan.
Top Tip
Avoid snowboarding at all costs. The board takes up too much space on the chairlift! Our ski lessons packages can help steer you in the right direction.
Favourite Hotel
The hotel Daria-I Nor, in Alpe d’Huez. Relaxing ambiance and direct access to Les Bergers.
