Biography
It was a friend, almost as a joke, who introduced her to cross-country skiing. She was 7 years old and was convinced she would never compete. Time and achievements have since made her change her mind: after attending the Liceo Scientifico Galileo Galilei of Belluno, she was in fact torn between the possibility of pursuing a university career (she wanted to become a physiotherapist) and cross-country skiing. In the end, her talent on the snow prevailed, to the extent that she is now a national athlete. In her free time she likes listening to music, reading books and baking cakes. Travelling is also a big favourite.
