Biography: 
Inspired by the breathtaking landscapes of South Limburg's Heuvelland (Netherlands), I embarked on my running journey. An invitation from Dries Busselot led me to the SCOTT Running Team Benelux.

I thrive in natural surroundings, with the Alpes being my favourite training haven. The Belgian Ardennes, closer to home, offer the allure of mud, making it an enchanting terrain to navigate. Sliding through the mud feels like art to me.

Being a part of the SCOTT team fuels my desire to push my limits and draws inspiration from fellow athletes. SCOTT equips me with the finest gear to conquer these challenging landscapes.

For me, running is a means to push my physical boundaries and achieve mental serenity during long, soul-rejuvenating runs, akin to meditation.

Achievements: 
Finisher Trans Alpine Run 2022
