If you’d have told me at 23 that I’d still be doing this at nearly 40, I don’t think I’d have quite believed you. But here we are—and after 15 incredible years on the World Cup circuit, seven podiums, one victory, and the honour of flying the flag for Great Britain, I’ve decided this will be my last season on the slopes.
I’ve never lost the determination to be the best skier I can be, and I still feel that fire burning inside me. To my family, coaches, sponsors, federation, and every single fan who’s ever cheered me on—thank you for always having my back. It’s been the privilege of a lifetime. Let’s make this final push one to remember. See you out there. ⛷️💙
