My Skydiving Journey

I started skydiving in 2014 at Skydive Spaceland Houston and completely fell in love with it. After I did my first tandem skydive I knew this was a passion I needed to explore. So I quit my job, pack my bags, and moved to the drop zone.

Now I have over 5,000 Skydives. I hold multiple instructional ratings, and broken two world records, I have placed at the US nationals in 2019, and I’ve had a heck of a good time. I am one of few female tandem instructors, an AFF instructor, a wind tunnel instructor and coach.

Skydiving has taken me all over the world and giving me some really incredible experiences. My favorite place I ever worked was in Voss, Norway, here I fell in love with the nature, the people and the endless actives.

I have trained in many different disciplines in Skydiving, but my favorite discipline is flying angles. It feels like you’re flying your body like a rocket ship and I love it.

Skydiving has helped me to branch out into other air sports. I also love to BASE jump, Speedfly and Paragliding. I really love to jump and run off cliffs with my friends. The best way to experience nature is through the air.

When I was a kid, the grownups would always ask, "Well, If everyone else jumped off a bridge, would you?" in a scolding voice.... Now I can confidently answer... YUP!

OOO Look at that!
