ABOUT ME: I was born in Thonon les Bains, and raised in Morzine France. I grew up in the ski world with both my parents as ski instructors. After walking, skiing was the 2nd thing I learnt. I tried some other sports like climbing, swimming, dancing and icing, but skiing was of course my favourite one. I started runnnig at 10 and joined the French team at 17. But the mountains are what I love: whether climbing up them in the summer or skiing down them in winter. The mountains are what keep me balanced, especially after tough, nerve-racking competitions. My career has been stopped two times, because I broke both of my knees, one in 2008 and the other in December 2009. Tough stuff, but I keep going!
FILMS: Hollywood is my next career.
