“Performance begins in the head and heart.”
Competitive sport means full commitment of body and mind .
It requires planning, strategy, emotions, luck, experience, exhaustion, togetherness, perseverance, health awareness, dreams and above all: the willingness and courage to face the challenge.
I have dealt with all of these aspects on a daily basis for over 14 years as a top athlete.
The element of water and the seemingly weightless glide of a boat have always fascinated me. In my search for the perfect stroke and in my pursuit of excellence, I discovered my passion for rowing. I had the honor of competing in the team boat at the 2012 London Olympic Games and the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games, winning the U23 World Championship title , also in the team boat, and receiving the overall World Cup trophy in the single sculls.
This passion and motivation to make the seemingly impossible possible led me, after a long injury break, to the America's Cup team Alinghi Red Bull Racing . As a Cyclor, I was able to fight with my team for success in the 37th America's Cup .
