How did you end up with Team NewCold?
I joined Team NewCold through one of the test days organized by the federation.

What do you find the coolest about the sport you practice within Team NewCold?
The adrenaline rush you get during and after a run.

What is a unique quality/fact about yourself?
I spent years in circus classes and learned various skills such as rolling on Aerial Silk, trapeze work, diabolo, and tightrope walking. So, I enjoy trying new things.

Do you have tips for young athletes aspiring to be successful in luge?
Start as early as possible and be prepared for a lot of winter travel. In my first season, I spent 9 weeks abroad.

Where do you see yourself in the next 5 years?
Still actively involved in the sport, and I hope to have participated in the Olympic Games by then.

What has been your biggest achievement within Team NewCold so far?
My biggest achievement was participating in the test event in preparation for the Youth Olympics in 2024 in Pyeong-Chang, South Korea
