Meet the team

In terms of the some of the more memorable times, these range from walking through the arrivals in full ski kit plus skis after getting dropped off by a helicopter transfer straight from the piste, to enjoying a week of Michelin star dining across the Three Valleys. I have loved every minute of it and am so lucky to say that for a few weeks in the winter I have the best office in the world.

I used to be able to ski a bit, but as abilities and bodies slow down one thing that doesn’t change is the pure, unfiltered excitement that comes from getting onto the first lift and feeling the skis flex on that first turn. It really does transport you back to an almost childlike sense of fun. I felt this from day one in Val d'Isere and am totally sure this will continue all the way through to my last day on the mountain. It is purely the best adventure you can have with friends and family and seeing people experience this for the first time really can't be equalled.

I grew up as a sport-loving kid, so learning the ropes on skis wasn't too different. I learnt relatively late compared to others, but this means nothing - I was always the kid veering off the side of the piste to discover crazy tree runs or bumps... usually culminating in a crash. However, no pain, no gain.

My funniest moment was trying to teach my parents when they visited me in Canada on my ski instructor course - they always thought they knew better when it came to getting down the mountain, but after a few discussions they finally understood they should probably listen to what I had to say!
