Biography: 
I started running at the age of 5 and never stopped. From 2009 until 2015 I was a professional athlete for the Belgian Military team. After my professional career, SCOTT gave me the opportunity to become part of the Benelux SCOTT Running team. From that time on I have participated on trail ranging from 10km to 42km, some for fun or training, some because I want to feel the competition-vibe again. The SCOTT team became a family, and I'm proud to show the logo wherever I go.
