Born in Sion in Valais, I grew up in this small town surrounded by mountains. Passionate about social dynamics, I found my professional path in education, especially working with children and adolescents in difficulty. I am curious by nature, and like to discover new things. I practise several activities such as osteo-therapy, and also the installation of misting solutions in various public and industrial areas. I am fascinated by the human spirit, and I practice meditation and personal development. I particularly like the great outdoors and sharing walks in the mountains with my dog and all the good things that life allows us to appreciate. My mum told me that I was drawn to the sky before I could even talk! I have been fascinated with paragliding since I was little because I loved the bright, neon colours of the sails and the spirit of the pilots, open and jovial. I did my first tandem flight at the age of 12 in 1996, and a second a few years later and finally, after a time shared with my brother in the world of free fall, I started paragliding in 2009 in order to to honour the little guy in me who was always drawn towards the sky. I chose to fly BGD because it represents everything that the little boy that I was drawn to: a style full of colours, and atypical as well as an open and friendly state of mind. I fully identify with this! In 2022 I started my instructor and tandem pilot training, and completed the tandem in 2024. My personal flying objectives are to evolve in cross country flying, through the XC Swiss league, and if time permits, I would like to start competing. This sport has taken me to different places in the world such as Morocco. It has also taught me humility and patience, and has enabled me to master my fears while listening to them, and to surpass myself a little more each year while evolving in safety.
