Skiing is a sport where you get to feel free and enjoy the nature. So, if you ask me there isn’t anything that’s better than the feeling you get while skiing. I am a very active person who loves experiencing different sports and challenging myself. I have been teaching for many years in all kinds of sports, varying from handball to skiing. I teach to give others the experience I got when trying the sport, so to be able to teach skiing in such a beautiful place as Zermatt is perfect.

In the summer

For me the summer means going back home. While I’m back home I see my family, friends, work and prepare for the next skiseason by working out and being active.

My Zermatt insider tip is:

Going to Italy & get authentic Italian Pasta

If I wasn't a Summit instructor:

If I wasn’t a summit ski instructor, I would help adaptive people into sport & adapting the sports to them, so everyone no matter who they are or why they need help, get the same opportunity as anyone else. On top of that I would finish my master’s degree in Sports Science and Health to be able to help even more people.

3 reasons to ski with me:

1. Personalised learning: Every skier is unique & learn differently. The learning is for you & I will adapt the instructions for you and your goals.

2. Fun while learning: Learning should be fun. The brain remembers good experiences & fun moments on skies, and the body will remember the skiing.

3. Safe while learning: You will be safe on the mountain while you’re focusing on learning.
