I started paragliding at the age of 14, after years of begging my parents to let me do it, as they don't fly. All my life I have lived next to one of the best flying sites in Belgium, so I have always been fascinated by all aerial disciplines - kitesurfing, hot air ballooning, paragliding... Even paper aeroplanes! 

To increase the hours I spend in the air, I have dedicated my whole life to paragliding: I have become an instructor, a dealer, an event organiser, a competitor and a tandem pilot. I think the only way to improve is to practise as much as possible. For me, all flights are interesting: a short glide, a 200 km flight, a tandem or an acro flight... That's why I never say no to flying. 

I have been on several podiums in national competitions, being Belgian champion in 2019 (and 2020). I have been a member of the Belgian national team since 2018, participating in FAI 1 championships and PWCs, and I also compete in hike & fly competition, taking part in competitions such as the X-Pyr and the Airtour du Mont Blanc. I am also part of Team X1X, where the motto "sharing is caring" makes perfect sense. Flying, progressing, encouraging each other, discussing or simply enjoying a good meal... All these things are better with a group of people. This is the main reason I am so taken with the idea of this team.
