I grew up in Wiesbaden, a cosy place in the South-West of Germany. Ever since taking my first step and taking part in various sports as a child like ballet, volleyball or track and field, sport has been part of my life - it is the foundation of who I am today. Sport has kept me focused when I grew up, it made me fit - physically and mentally, it was my strength and safe space that I could escape to when I felt lost and it made me meet wonderful people from all over the world. Sports has been my constant.

After my studies, moving to different cities and working in corporate businesses in South Africa, I decided to follow my inner voice to make my dream come true - the dream to build a space where people feel comfortable yet challenged enough to create a healthier and stronger version of themselves. 

So, with this dream in mind, I left the comfort of a permanent job and opened my own gym in Cape Town, South Africa. Three years later, from zero members to full classes of happy and healthy people, I knew that it was time for me to continue my journey and start a new chapter in my life.

I moved back to Germany where Berlin became my new home base. A place I love because it constantly evolves and moves, and resonates with who I am, constantly finding new ways to elevate my own but also other people’s lives.
In Berlin, I started working as a fitness instructor and project manager for a sports brand, where I created sustainable fitness concepts.

When Peloton came along, offering me an opportunity that allowed me to combine all my experiences from before in one, I didn’t think twice to take on this new opportunity. Being part of such a wonderful community for many months, creating energetic, fun but challenging live and on-demand fitness classes and making fitness accessible to anyone – anytime and anywhere.  It was a once in a lifetime experience. Meeting people across the globe, joining each others journey on becoming better, healthier and more balanced human beings. An experience that has taught me many lessons not just about training, but about life. To the core it has shown me what success really means to me, how important it is to always stay true to your values and your self.
