Let's start at the beginning...

On April 19, 2001 I was born in a small town called Winterthur, in Switzerland. I had a very sheltered and carefree childhood, but unfortunately I don't have many memories of my youngest years. However, there's one memory which I probably won't forget until the end of my life: My first experience on two wheels at the age of 4. This kids bike, that I was gifted for my birthday, was mainly used to ride down the basement stairs. The first creative thoughts, you might think...
One thing was very clear early on, bikes have fascinated me ever since I was a little boy.

When school started, the first problems came my way. I had extreme difficulties concentrating on things that didn't interest me. The school system didn't make any sense to me back then, which later became understandable through the ADHD diagnosis. A lot of things were too fast for me, too incomprehensible and pointless. However, there was one thing that gave me a lot of joy and brought balance to my life. Improvising on the piano, mainly Jazz.
Coming from a family full of artists and both my parents being musicians, getting into the world of music couldn't have been easier. Piano and music in general still play a big role in my life to this day.

In early 2010 I discovered Minecraft, a videogame that has no fixed rules or goals, just like the piano. Playing allowed me to let my creativity run wild. In 2013 I uploaded my first gaming video to YouTube which unknowingly laid the foundation for many more years to come. That's when my first perfectionistic tendencies became apparent. The gaming industry brought me into the world of video editing and graphic design for the very first time, a talent which came in handy many times ever since.

When the time came to consider my career choice, I had no idea what to do. I was aware that one cannot make a living from gaming videos or playing the piano alone, at least not as a young boy. The thoughts of an office job or a career in business did not excite me in any way, which is why I decided to start an apprenticeship as a restaurant specialist.
In the first year of my apprenticeship, I came across something that fundamentally changed my life!

In early 2018, I randomly stumbled upon a street trials video video that reminded me of my childhood, specifically the kids bike I used to ride down the basement stairs. Two weeks later, I bought my first street trials bike. Since I had already gained a lot of experience in video editing and graphic design from my past, I knew I wanted to combine it with biking. It felt like a whole new world had opened up for me. In 2021, after continuously posting pictures and videos for three years, I released RideSet, a YouTube video series and my own clothing brand. I am grateful to have met many people over time and particularly happy to call some of them my closest friends.
What once started as a hobby is now so much more!
