I'm 24 years old. After finishing my degree in 2011 I worked for my family's business - a chain of gyms in New Zealand - for 3 years looking after our digital marketing. NZ is very isolated from the rest of the world, so I decided to head overseas to see the world in Nov 2014, and since then have spent time in the US, France, Italy, and the Middle East! I am very passionate about skiing, and am always on the look out for the best ski locations :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two years ago, I was stuck in a storm in New Zealand's Southern Alps mountain range for 6 days.
My group spent 3 nights in an emergency snow cave, then walked for 24 hours to get out to a river where we were rescued by a helicopter!
