Biography

Her parents placed a snowboard under her feet when she was just three years old. Raised within the Snow Club Courmayeur and attending a language high school in the same town, she initially focused on freestyle before being drawn to snowboard cross – the discipline practised by her lifelong idol Michela Moioli, now also her teammate on the national squad.

Alongside the Olympic champion from Alzano Lombardo, she shares a unique distinction: she is the only Italian woman to have stepped onto the podium at the Junior World Championships, thanks to the bronze medal won in Gudauri in 2024. A few months earlier, she competed at the Youth Olympic Games in Gangwon, narrowly missing the individual top ten and finishing eighth in the mixed team event. An abdominal operation slowed her World Cup progression, but she still made her debut in December of the same year, achieving an encouraging 15th place in Cervinia. On the course, she always strives to deliver the best version of herself. At just 17, she is ready to take on the Olympic challenge at Milano Cortina without fear.
