For many years I worked in outdoor centres through out the South-West of England as an outdoor instructor in different activities including kayaking and sailing. After specialising in rock climbing I started guiding on expeditions around the world on many six and seven thousand meter peaks. I now live year round in the Chamonix valley, mountaineering in the summer and skiing during the winter. I am a passionate Ski tourer and ski mountaineer and am a member of the British Ski Mountaineering team, competing at an international level around the alps through out the winter.
