Hello! My name is Alexander, and I have been involved in athletics from a very young age, inspired by my father. I started as a thrower, but I am now fully focused on the 400m sprint.
After my studies, I completed the Topsport Defence program, which allowed me to turn my passion into my profession. For me, this is truly the best job in the world.
With the same passion I had as a 6-year-old boy, I still step onto the track every day, driven by the ambition to improve.
