I'm a Swiss female football player and my name is Olivia. I was born in Zurich, Switzerland and grew up playing sports from a young age. My mother played basketball professionally so I think it's safe to say that sports are in my blood. After completing high school I attended the University of Zurich where I majored in Sports Management.
As for football, I started playing when I was just 10 years old with my local club Zürcher Sportclub UFA Zurich Frauenfußball and worked my way up through the ranks to become a top player in Switzerland. My dream is to one day play professionally for either Switzerland or the USA Women's national team.
When I'm not on the field, you can find me hiking through the Swiss Alps, practicing yoga or reading about nutrition. Sports have given me so much and I believe they can also do the same for others, which is why I love volunteering at local sports camps to help kids get involved in football from a young age. My motto is "The harder you work, the more fun you will have" - it's something my mom always told me when I was growing up playing basketball and it still holds true today.
I am currently competing for FC Basel 1893 Frauenfußball Team as striker in Switzerland's Super League Women.
