Athlete and production in one person.
I race cross-country skiing at US college level and produce my own footage – from training weeks to race weekends. Everything you see here was made that way.
Where I race
As a student-athlete at the University of Vermont I race the NCAA Carnival series, plus Supertour and US Nationals. The season highlight is the NCAA Championships in March in Craftsbury, Vermont – our home course.
My equipment
I ski on Fischer skis and use Swix poles. There is a cooperation with Fischer through their German distribution.
What I bring
First-hand footage
I've been filming and shooting photos since I was 13, including production work at the 2020 Junior World Championships in Oberwiesenthal. Material gets made where training and racing happen – not staged in a studio.
Two language markets
Raised in Germany, racing in the US. Everything here exists in German and English – what gets made works in both markets.
The honest version
I document training, setbacks and development, not just results. That reaches people genuinely interested in endurance sport.
What is possible right now – and what is not
I compete for a US college. As an NCAA athlete and an international student I am bound by rules that heavily restrict commercial collaboration inside the US: I cannot currently provide promotional services here.
Possible
- Equipment support that simply reaches me – skis, poles, nutrition
- Partnerships with brands in Germany, within the applicable rules
- Getting to know each other and talking about the time after college
Not possible right now
- Paid promotional work while I compete in the NCAA system
That sounds like an obstacle, but it is mostly a question of timing. If you are considering working with me, get in touch anyway – we will find out what fits within the rules.
Let's talk
Equipment support, a conversation for later, or an idea I have not thought of – just send me a message.
