Athlete Biography

In 2004 I started with running and tried my first duathlon in 2006. A Luxembourg sports journalist, Romain Schlechter discovered my talent and is since many years my coach and has most influence on my sporting career as well as my mother.
Triathlon became my passion a year later and since (2007) I am National Champion.

I currently train in Luxembourg and do regularly training camps with international triathlon colleagues.
During an average training week I spend about 10 hours swimming, 5 hours biking, and five hours of running.
I have taken part in many other countries’ Championships. My favorite race is Echternach (Lux); it’s close to where I live and organized perfectly. My triathlon goal is to be faster. My dream is to participate in the Olympic Games one day.
Without my sponsors and support team I could not achieve to do my favourite sport.
COSL (Comité Olympique et Sportif Luxembourgeois) has integrated me into their promotion squad in 2011.
