He made his World Cup debut in February 2009 in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia, and slowly made a name for himself in slalom, giant slalom, and the combined. He achieved his first podium in 2015 with a runner-up finish in the super combined in Wengen, the same place where he would claim his first-ever World Cup victory in the same discipline three years later. The 2017/18 season was a breakthrough one for him as after claiming his first World Cup victory in January, he went on to win an Olympic bronze medal at the Olympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018 a month later. His hobbies are reading, computers, traveling, mountain biking, wakeboarding, and surfing. He describes himself as a rigorous perfectionist who likes work well done and who is very demanding with himself.
