Biography
Started: He began swimming competitively in 2010. (lhebdojournal.com, 09 Jul 2019)
Reason: His physical education teacher Jean-Sebastien Prevost discovered his talent and encouraged him to take up the sport. "He's the one who gave birth to my passion for swimming. After three swimming sessions, he approached me to tell me that I had potential in the water. Before I had my illness, I did a lot of sports, including judo. I like the social aspect of swimming, because every day we see the same people with whom we share the joys and sorrows, whether in competitions or training. They become a second family."
