Won gold in slalom at the 2024 FIS Junior World Ski Championships - Switzerland's first junior worlds slalom title in over a decade. Won the overall European Cup title plus the European Cup super-G discipline title in the 2025-26 season, a result that secured him a permanent World Cup giant slalom start place.

Sponsors: Stockli (skis), Salomon (boots) - per FIS official athlete biography; poles sponsor not listed by FIS.
