Where it began...
I had my first taste of climbing mountains during the winter in 2012 when I went on a solo three-week trek in the Nepal Himalayas. This life changing experience inspired me to reach even greater heights by setting one of the biggest goals of my life so far – to climb the ‘7 Summits’, the highest mountain on each continent.
Having completed the Seven Summits, I set my sights on new challenges. I spent the next three years exploring breathtaking places such as the Arctic Circle, the Sierra Nevada, Scotland, Pyrenees, the Alps and Patagonia on my bikes. These adventures encouraged me to become a qualified MTB guide and start XC racing.
Expedition Guiding
In 2020, I decided it was time to pursue a career in the outdoor industry and moved from leafy Wimbledon Village, England to St. Moritz, Switzerland.
I started a business leading private snowshoe, fat bike tours, hiking and mountain biking adventures in the beautiful Swiss Alps. I guide all over the world from Antarctica to the Himalayas, sharing my passion for the mountains.
I fell in love with the Polar regions when I climbed Mt. Vinson, Antarctica’s highest mountain, and this love deepened when I got to work as a guide in Antarctica in 2022 and in the Arctic in 2023.
I'm also a photographer, and have covered husky sled races in Alaska, Norway and Sweden.
