When she was young, she lived in the city (Verona) and started skiing when her family would go to the mountains (Madonna di Campiglio) every weekend. Her father tried to get her into cross-country skiing, but seeing the ski-lift in front of the course didn’t help him in his quest. Was three years old when she asked her father why she should ski up when there is an easier way to get up the slope. "Then my mom decided to give me the opportunity to ski 'down' and I that's how I started." (Athlete, Apr 2021)

General Interest

FIRST OLYMPIC WINTER GAMES
Even though she was named to the Italian team for the PyeongChang 2018 Olympic Winter Games, her coaches decided to sit her out of the race and is listed as a DNS (did not start). "The previous year had only been my first season in ski cross, everything happened so quickly. I had just gone through a tough time and I wasn't ready yet maybe." (giocopulito.it)

COMING BACK TO THE SPORT AFTER LEG INJURY
At age 16, while alpine skiing, she had a serious compound fracture of the tibia and fibula. "At the beginning it was hard, I didn't want to ski anymore, I realized, in those months of inactivity, that there was another world outside of competition, where we went out in the evening and had fun as all normal kids do. My mother managed to convince me to take it slowly and I went back to having fun (in skiing). In retrospect, I do not regret the choices I made." (giocopulito.it, 5 Dec 2018)
