Fiona has proven herself as one of the most decorated athletes in the sport of stand up paddling. She is unique in the fact that she competes in both sup racing as well as sup surfing and does so at the highest level. From Hood River Oregon, Fiona travels the world competing on the APP World Tour representing Starboard. In 2016 she won her first SUP Racing World Title and has placed in the top three ever since. At the start of the 2019 season, she won the APP World Tour Sunset Beach Pro, which puts her in the best position to start her SUP Surfing World Title campaign. Amongst all of that, Fiona also has Type 1 Diabetes. She was diagnosed at 18 and has not let it hold her back. She advocates for healthy lifestyles and promotes awareness about Type 1 Diabetes through social media and outreach events. Fiona truly believes that if you have a dream, you can achieve it!
