When you were a kid, were there any early activities that might indicate you’d one day become a skydiver?
I grew up flying with my dad. I did my first solo flight before I had my driver’s license.
What was the circumstance that led you to the DZ for the first time to make your very first skydive?
I am an air traffic controller. Having talked to the jump plane on numerous occasions, I eventually decided to give it a shot.
What made you want to continue skydiving after your first jump?
At first it was the adrenaline, but now that that’s worn off, it’s the strive to get better.
What’s the best / most memorable skydive you’ve ever made?
The unicorn jump with Emily, Jade, Dan, and Paul!
What advice would you give to someone thinking about jumping for the first time?
Don’t even think about it, just do it! Once you are up there, it’s not as bad as it seems.
What keeps you coming back to SNE year after year?
The community. Everyone here feels like my family.
