What drove you to become a competitive ski racer: I like the feeling of facing a challange. To stand on the start and feel the nervousness makes me feel alive. And to stand in the finnish and know that I succeded is a feeling that is unbeatable.
Define yourself in three words: tall, “hard-working” and ambitious
I love... The feeling of success.
I need.. a lot of food ;)
I find inspiration.... when its good weather
My greatest achievement is..... That I ended top 30 in the slalom cup last year with startnumbers over 65 on all races.
If I could live anywhere, it would be.... right where I am today.
My interests other than skiing.... sports in general and fishing
Money or Fame? Money….
Beach or mountains? Hard question! If I have to choose I prefer mountains
Favorite song... Neil young, Old man
Nordica because... they have a professional team with people that knows ski racing since many years.
My motto is…. When I do something, I will do it with my whole heart.
