About

Growing up in Cape Town / South Africa literally on the beach, my sport naturally lead to Lifesaving where I was the overall National Champ in U10 & U14 divisions, runner up in the U15 division. As a water baby, swimming and surfing was part of my life since very young, but the competition side of surfing I only discovered with the Grom Search at 14 where I won the provincial competition. Since then I never looked back... Born to a Swiss mother, I participated in the Swiss National Team trials in 2022 and qualified for the ISA Junior World Surfing Championship in Brazil (2023) and El Salvador (2024). With 18 and school completed (International German School of Cape Town), this is now my first year joining the open division, competing in as many competitions as possible. The CS in Taghazout in February 2025 was a huge highlight this year so far competing against the best, observing & learning a lot traveling with my South African training mates such as Luke Thompson and Luke & Connor Slijpen. Surfing is my absolute passion & I'm excited to take it to the next level ;-)
