Bio
I‘m 21 years old and I live in La Tour-de-Peilz in Swizerland. I’m in the Swiss ski mountaineering team since 2014 and I’m actually studying geosciences and environment in the University of Lausanne. I love being outside and being able to move fast in beautiful landscapes, particularly in mountains and so doing trail running, mountain bike, road cycle and climbing in summer and ski-mountaineering during the winter During the summer I train by running and cycling, and also going to fitness for strength. This winter 2019-2020 I did my first season in Espoir category and my best result is a 6th place in a world cup race, which would have allowed me to take part in the European Championships if they weren’t cancelled due to the coronavirus.
