ABOUT HALLE

Born into a family who loves the snow, Halle started snowboarding at just three years old. As a youngster, Halle loved watching snowboarding movies with her dad and when she was a bit older had the opportunity to meet Olympic gold and silver medallist Torah Bright which kickstarted her own Olympic dream.

Halle considers being selected to represent Australia at the 2023 Junior World Championships a career highlight, placing 13th in slopestyle and 28th in big air. If there was one piece of advice she would give her younger self it would be to never give up when facing fear, keep pushing and believe you can do it.
