My most notable accomplishment to date was qualifying for and competing in the Acro Super Final in Turkey after just 11 months of acro training, where I placed 18th out of 40 pilots. I was also invited to India to perform in an acro demonstration event, which was an incredible experience and a highlight of my flying career so far.

What do you most enjoy about paramotoring?

Just how easy it is. Fits in my fiesta so I could be anywhere and if its flyable ill get it out and go!

It allowed me to quit my job and pursue my passion of flying. Opened doors to  work with many brands on different videos. Met loads of people and have been able to travel all over the world because of it.

What advice would you give to someone looking to start paramotoring?

If you truly want to get into paramotoring, you’ll find a way to make it happen. It’s a very accessible sport, and even if budget is a concern, there are always options and pathways to get started. The key is commitment and determination.

What’s the most unexpected or funny experience you’ve had while paramotoring?

Definitely flying to college. That day was mental.

Why Parajet?

Initially, I chose Parajet after coming across a great second-hand opportunity. However, from the very first flight, I was impressed by the quality and performance, and I’ve remained loyal to the brand ever since. I’ve been a fan of Parajet equipment throughout my flying journey.
