I was born in Vienna in 1988. At the age of 5, I was involved in a car accident, from which I suffered paraplegia. In 1996, the Alpine Skiing World Championships for the Disabled took place in Austria and I saw a report about it on TV. I was so fascinated that I urged my parents to let me attend a course in sitskiing, which I finally did about two years later. The teachers there were race skiers themselves (Andreas Schiestl, Gerda Pamler) and as I proved pretty talented from the beginning on, I started race skiing on a national level in the 1999\/2000 season, which turned out to be quite successful.<\/p>\n

In the 2002\/03 season, aged 14, I first participated in several European Cup Races and even managed to win some, finally finishing second in the overall. I also had my debut in World Cup Races but the results were not entirely satisfying, so I spent the rest of the season in EC. Nevertheless, a year later (2004) I already made it to the World Championships in Wildsch\u00f6nau, finishing 4th<\/sup> in Downhill and 5th<\/sup> in Super-G. The first major medal I took home was Bronze in the Torino 2006 PWG Downhill. In July 2007, I also took my Matura and then moved to Innsbruck, Tyrol, in order to have better training facilities and to study Political Science and Law at Innsbruck University.<\/p>\n

The next four years should prove to be a steep way up, winning my first WC Race in 2007, my first \u201csmall globe\u201d (Super-G Overall WC) in 2008 and the \u201cThe Big One\u201d (i.e. Overall WC) in 2009 and 2010 as well as four medals in the 2010 Paralympic Winter Games.<\/p>\n

Since 2012, I also work for the ORF, presenting the magazine \u201cOhne Grenzen\u201d (\u201cWithout Borders\u201d).<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
