How did you get into skateboarding?
"I have always been into more extreme sports. I started with surfing but it was really cold in the winter, so my dad took me skating in 2021 during lockdown, and I instantly loved it."
What do you love about your sport?
"I love the thrill it gives me and how it energises me. I love how it pushes me to do things I never would have thought I could have achieved. It's very rewarding when you land a new trick but it's also constantly pushing me to overcome fears. I love the adrenaline. I have made some of my closest friends through skateboarding."
What is your proudest sporting achievement(s) to date?
"My proudest achievement is placing 4th in the UK Vert Series 2025. Also winning 'Best Trick' at Boardmasters Concrete Chaos 2023, it was epic."
Any future goals and aspirations?
"I would love to go skating abroad and enter an international competition. I would also like to place top 3 in the UK vert series this year. I want to compete more than ever this year."
