About

I was born in 1983 in town Trbovlje. I finished primary school in Hrastnik and high school in Celje. Now I’m studying at Sport University. I’m employed at Slovenian army.
I’ve started paddling in 1990 when I was 6 years old. Ever since my life is all about kayak. I can’t imagine my life without paddling. My discipline is kayak slalom (K-1). My biggest goal in life is to become an Olympic Champion.
I’m perfectionist who smiles a lot, like having fun and really enjoys life.
Beside paddling in my free time I like to do snowboarding, wave surfing, cross-country skiing, badminton. My best place on earth so far is valley of Soča river.
