I first encountered climbing at the age of eleven and quickly discovered a passion and love for rock climbing. In my teenage years, I participated in many competitions and was also a member of the Belgian National Team for several years. Meanwhile, I was able to complete over a thousand routes and boulders between 7a and 9a.

Since I was fourteen, I've been building routes in Blueberry Hill in Kortrijk, and I continue this passion as a National Route setter.

In 2019, I co-founded Rhino Boulder Gym in Ghent. In 2020, we took over the largest climbing hall in Belgium, better known as Climbing gym “Bleau”.

Today, I focus more on route setting, personal training and injury prevention for climbers.
