When I first started skydiving, I was pretty scared- but my dad always encouraged me. He used to say, “Your fear is your only limit!”

He also reminded me that I don’t have the same delicate internal organs as living animals, so I could probably survive a big fall without my insides getting smushed.

My dad was right about both of those things! The more you do something, the less scared you become, and my insides are a pretty durable mix of cotton and polyester. My passion has taken me to some of the most beautiful places on the planet, and I’ve helped hundreds of SAs overcome their fears and learn how to skydive, too!
