Started curling at age 12 in Pinerolo. “It was in a hockey arena, during a school course organised by the Italian Curling Federation.” (Athlete, 7 Jan 2022).
“I didn’t like curling at the beginning, but my father was part of the organising staff of the 2006 Olympics, so there was a desperate need to start curling activities in the Pinerolo area and some of my classmates and myself were the perfect victims to build a junior team. At the time, curling in Pinerolo practically did not exist.” (Athlete, 7 Jan 2022)
