I want to solidify my place among the best in my age group at both the Flemish and Belgian Championships. That’s my first goal, but I’m also working to gradually close the gap with the top athletes in older categories. Over the past few years, I’ve faced more than my share of injuries, which hasn’t always made things easy. But every setback has made me more determined. I’m hoping to represent Belgium at the U20 European and World Championships in the coming years. I’m also really looking forward to joining the Beyond the Board team at international training camps like those in Tenerife, where top athletes from all over Europe come together during the winter. Because I’m still in school, I haven’t had the chance to go yet, but I see it as a great opportunity to learn, grow, and take the next step in my development.
