I am coming from Transylvania (from a small Hungarian speaking town based in Romania). Growing up next to a ski resort in the Carpathians meant I was put on skis at the age of 3, so no need to explain where my passion for this sport started :). I've started to discover ski touring and freeriding at the age of 20 which opened a completely new sector in the skiing world.

I studied computer science and started working as a full time software engineer. Quickly realized a 40h office job cannot give me enough time to play in the mountains, so 4 years ago, decided to move to the French alps together with my partner. We were lucky enough to be able to settle down quickly in Chamonix, a scenic town at the foot of the Mont Blanc famous for its mountain culture and history.

So here I am living the "dream" (if I am allowed to say that), working 4 days a week as a software developer for a small local company where nobody's in the office on a powder day :D.

In this mecca of alpinism and mountaineering I got quickly hooked on climbing too, so whenever there's no snow I usually go explore the alpine glacier sfera, climb up peaks, go riding mountain bikes with friends or enjoy my latest passion for arts: painting.

There's always something to do in this huge playground and I'm happy to represent a brand that needs to be seen in the outdoor scene.
