Started skating because of her grandmother, and while she never skated, she was a big fan of the sport and wanted Miriam to learn. As she improved, her grandmother drove her to practices and always supported her the best she could. (Athlete, 14 Jun 2021)
To make the top-10 at the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games. "We have competed together at two Olympic Games, but we never made the cut for the free skating. It would be a dream to skate a clean free programme at that huge event." (Athlete, 14 Jun 2021)
She and her partner train in Austria and Germany.
Competing at the 2021 World Championships. "A few months ago I would have said that our 10th place at the world championships in 2019 was our biggest achievement. Now I am much more proud of the world championships 2021, even though it was only 11th place. We did not have any competitions to prepare, Severin struggled with an injury in training, and the pressure was huge. I am so proud that we were able to put out everything possible in this stressful situation and secured the quota place for the Olympic Games 2022." (Athlete, 14 Jun 2021)
Julia Kiefer (Severin Kiefer's sister). "She is incredibly hard working and she meets each new challenge with determination and optimism. The way she is teaching her athletes and how she finds an individual approach to each single one, is admirable." (Athlete, 14 Jun 2021)
Coaches Knut Schubert (GER) and the late Jean-Francois Ballester (FRA). "Knut has given us so many important life lessons, and Jean-Francois has given us the confidence to believe in ourselves and our goals and thus has fired up our motivation that is pushing us every day." (Athlete, 14 Jun 2021)
Always does some exercises she had developed with her sports psychologist in the dressing room before putting on her skates at each competition. (Athlete, 14 Jun 2021)
