I started climbing 8 years ago with constant weekend visits to The Bridestones in Yorkshire. I loved the freedom of the sport and the fact that I could push myself physically. After 6 months of outdoor bouldering the weather forced me to try plastic!!! I loved it and ever since have been hooked on training indoors and ticking boulder problems and routes outside.

The main focus for me at the minute is to continue training hard. I really enjoy competing in bouldering competitions, which I will continue to do; but my main passion is route climbing outside. My favourite crags are Malham and Kilnsey, and my biggest achievements to date are New Dawn 7c, Tremelo 7c, Comedy 7c and Raindogs 8a. This summer I am hoping to get outside as much as possible both in this country and abroad to improve my ascent list!
