Born on 2.5.1983 in Slovenj Gradec. When I was one year old, me and my parents moved to Prevalje to my current address in Črna na Koroškem. I learned how to ski with three years in my home town and surrounding hills and slopes.
In primary school, in addition to skiing, I also trained volley ball and studied piano. After primary school I attended gymnasia high school in Ravne na Koroškem and was simultaneously accepted in women B ski team. That was the first time I raced in FIS races and achieved 2.nd and 1.st place from position numbers 121 and 125.
Our decision turned out to be the right one and has brought us great success. I have won 11 World Cup races in my career which, at the moment classifies me as the best alpine skier in Slovenia.
My greatest achievements until today are silver medal in giant slalom at World Championships 2009, two Olympic silver medals in giant slalom and super G and after this years great season, I added a world championship silver medal in super combined, a title of world champion in giant slalom and an overall third place in FIS world cup.
