Growing up in the Bavarian Alps, I gained access to the Alpine region at an early age. My interest in the processes taking place in the mountains has grown as a result of the constant exposure to them. After studying geography in Innsbruck, my interest focussed on the field of meteorology and in particular on the interaction between the atmosphere, snow and ice, which is precisely why I am doing my Master's in Grenoble.
