I was born in the United States in 2001 to a French father and an American mother, and spent my childhood moving 14 times across countries and cultures. I was homeschooled for most of those years, and it was during that period—at 11 years old—that I discovered rowing through my mom. Very quickly, the dream became clear: I wanted to become an Olympic medalist. Through every move and every transition, rowing became the constant that anchored me.

In 2014, my family moved to Switzerland, and by 2018 I had joined the Swiss national rowing team. That same year I won my first international gold medal, the beginning of a series of podiums that shaped the early part of my career.

After graduating high school in Geneva in 2022, I began studying Human Biology at Stanford University and joined the Stanford rowing team. My collegiate journey has been unforgettable: NCAA All-American, ACC All-Team, and an NCAA Champion in 2025.

In the summer of 2024, I represented Switzerland at the Paris Olympics, finishing 4th in the women’s four. The Games brought extraordinary opportunities — features in articles, podcasts, and media across Europe and the U.S. — but also an unexpected challenge: the quiet heaviness that came after. Post-Olympic depression hit me harder than I anticipated. For the first time in my life, I had to face the question of who I was without a finish time, a medal, or a selection attached to my name.

That discomfort ended up opening something important. I realized I wanted to define myself beyond results, and I discovered a genuine love for exploring other sports and the outdoors. Today, I ski, surf, trail run, cycle, and chase anything thrilling that reminds me why I love movement in the first place. This past summer (2025), I even ran my first ultramarathon — something younger me would have never imagined.

I’m still the same driven athlete, but with a wider lens now. I’m learning to hold both ambition and joy, discipline and curiosity. And I’m building a life filled not only with goals, but also with stories.
