I grew up in Uster/Switzerland where I went to school. With 19 I started my paragliding career as a passenger at a tandem flight and I was fascinated by this sport. After the basic education for paragliding, I moved to the Berner Oberland, where I could collect a lot of experience in distance flying. In 2004 I participated for the first time at national competitions. In 2006 I finsihed my education as physiotherapist at the University hospital in Zurich. From October to May I work as physiotherapist in the hospital Interlaken. As sports physiotherapist I supported Christian Maurer for the Red Bull X-Alps. From May to September I fully concentrate on competition flying and distance flying.
