BIO

Started sailing almost 7 years old in 2005 just after the Olympics in Athens. I recall going to the wave breaker on the shore with my little brother and my parents, seeing all the boats sailing it was truly an amazing spectacle. Growing up in a country with sunshine almost 320 days per year it’s the ideal environment for a sport like sailing to grow in addition with this nautical tradition and connection with the sea. I’ve been sailing almost 22 years now from small dinghies like Optimist and 420, passing on to Olympic categories of 470 and in the last 6 to 7 years racing offshore, with many podium places and distinctions.
