Amy is a multiple National Champion in VFS and freestyle, with Resident Eloy and Arizona Arsenal. Her achievements are even more remarkable when you consider she was born with a hip not properly formed and spent the first few months of life in a cast, only able to move her arms and head. This was followed by 15 years of severe lung infections, yet now Amy is a professional athlete. Amy has made her living from skydiving for over 20 years. She has been on a mission to get more women in skydiving since day one.
