About Me..

Originally from Australia, I grew up surfing, scuba diving and then racing as a Mountain Bike and Road cyclist. Add a few snow seasons in Australia and Canada, an overseas adventure in 2005 that turned into 6 years of living and working on Super Yachts throughout the Caribbean/Med and South Pacific and then a Skydiving holiday to California in 2013 which turned into a new life living in the United States. I've done so many different things throughout my life and I believe they have all contributed to making me the person I am today.

​I started skydiving in 2010 with the dream (like so many others) of flying from the top of mountains around the world and I committed my lifestyle to that dream. Giving up my "normal" life, I fast tracked my skills as a skydiver by learning to Freefly in the Wind Tunnel and getting coaching at the DZ. I then chose to base myself at one of the busiest and talented dropzones in the world so I could continue to progress. I stumbled upon a Wingsuit Performance Competition while on a B.A.S.E jumping trip to Italy in 2014 and my mind was completely blown when I saw that people were able to listen to their flight performance with the aid of a little device called a Flysight. The rest as they say.. is history!

Wingsuiting has taken me to so many amazing places around the world and I get a great sense of reward through sharing my passion. Ironically, I only ever started to focus on competitions as a way to get some credibility so I could do more coaching.
