Current school: Godalming College, studying Biology, Chemistry, Geography and Maths.

Favourite colour: Blue (goes without saying!)

Favourite music: All the songs that were on the Danish Radio Station (Radio Voice) when we were at an event in Denmark!

How I got into my sport: We used to spend all our holidays in Salcombe, Devon. Mum and Dad thought it would be good to learn to sail whilst down there…I loved it. And so it went from there!

Favourite sailing foods: Nutella on just about everything!

Why I love sailing: Sailing keeps me mentally and physically fit. I love the freedom the sport gives you and how it brings out all your best characteristics. Plus I visit some amazing places and meet some amazing people…and how could I forget the equally amazing tan lines!

Three things I’d take to a desert island: My boat (obviously!), my Ipod and Nutella!
