Additional sporting info

I started cycling in 2020, before I played field hockey where I twice won the Austrian championships and played international games with the youth national team.

I was sick at the end of august in 2021 which is why I ended the season early to focus on 2022, my first year in the u23 ranks.

I trained 700hours in 2021 and the plan is to slowly build on this and train about 750hours in 2022.

What makes you different?

I think the main differentiator is my mind. Most people want to win, but I think what makes me different is that I think about small things not many ever thought about and improve those little things. These marginal gains are key for my development, which is pretty good and makes me positive that I can get much better than I am right now.

Why do you want to compete in college?

I talked to a few athletes who competed in college, and they told me, that it is very professional and great for the development. This is very important to me and that’s why I think it is a good next step in my career. At the same time, going abroad is awesome for my personality development.

College Goals?

On the academic side I want a good education and graduate. On the sport side I want to be an important part of many races wins in my first years and later on win a few myself. The main goal is to develop and become good enough to turn pro.

Anything else we should know?

I love sports in general and accumulate knowledge about it through reading sports newsletters or watching videos.

I have a talent for math and reached the 16th place out of every Austrian student at a contest.
