I'm a Hakuba based snowboarder. I love all snowboarding disciplines, including half-pipe, slopestyle and riding in the backcountry. Throughout my career as a snowboarder, I have competed in many international competitions as well.

Currently, I'm interested in discovering and exploring the fun of snowboarding without the boundaries set by specific disciplines - in its free form. I'm interested in communicating to people the richness and preciousness of the nature in which we practise the sport we love.

I specialise is communicating and showing people how to enjoy the ski areas' natural terrain and pistes in a freestyle way. Let's have fun together!
