MY STORY

Zermatt's Independent Ski Instructor

​

Having taught all my adult life I feel I have wealth of experience and knowledge which can be utilised to get the most out of your lesson. The lesson should be about you! Whether that be something super technical, a coach to help you mentally conquer the slopes or a guide to take you to the best lunch spots. I'm confident I can improve your ability and we will certainly have a great time!

​

I started ski teaching straight after finishing school at the age of 18. What was meant to be one season as a gap year developed into a career and passion for snow-sports and the mountains. 

​

I spent 3 years working in Austria before moving to Zermatt in 2011. Working for one of the British schools in Zermatt I worked and trained for my instructing exams and completed the highest level in 2017. Having gained this level I then co ran the schools training program coaching future instructors through their exams. Having build up a large client base with return clients I made the decision to go independent in 2022.
