At the age of 20, after a gymnastics carreer, Fanny wanted some change and decided to try out athletics, especially pole vault.</p>
<p>
She quickly grew up to the top, improving the national records 7 times and collecting an impressive total of 9 national titles. </p>

Fanny has been dedicating her life to sports since she graduated as a doctor in Medicine in 2012.</p>
<p>
She always kept looking forward even in hard times and despite the many setbacks an athlete can encounter.</p>
<p>
Her hard work and determination have now lead her as close as it can get to her olympic dream.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>
<u><em><strong>Show her your support</strong></em> </u>and give her the last kick to improve her personal best from 4m40 to 4m50, the olympic qualification standard.</p>
