fication. I won the silver medal in "staffetta mista" at the ejc of club in Alicante. In the ejc in Sweden in 2012 I won the gold in
4 x 50 rescue medley in the pool and I made the fourth place in swim-run.
6. Personal Motto
It doesn't matter who you are, but what you are aiming at.
7. Favorite competition
I have always enjoyed confronting myself with others and trying to overcome my limits and my favourite competition, the one that will always remain in my heart was the ejc, not only because of my great achievements, but also for the pride for my country that made me feel strong and allowed me to face the exstremely low temperatures in races.
8. Favorite discipline
I started with the pool races but now I love even more doing board races and using my resistance ability in run-swim-run, and I hope to face an ocean women.
9. Goals for 2012
In 2013 I expect to do well again in the Italian Nationals, to achieve great goals espetially in the sea races and to give a contribute to the 5th consecutive victory for Italy. I would like to start aiming at the National absolutes with some important championships and to do experience in Australia.

I don't really remember an experience that impressed me in particular, I try to grasp the best of every experience abroad.

Other than lifesaving I also do plain swimming, and I also love hanging around with my friends and going out with them. I also love
drawing and sleeping :)
