Following the nomadic footsteps of her parents, she grew up between Argentinian Patagonia and the Alps. The two alpinists raised her and her brothers, believing that anything is possible with determination and persistence.
In 2021 she started competing on the FWQ while continuing to participate in races like Super G, banked slalom, and other local events. In her second season on the FWQ series, she had already qualified for 4* events and ended up winning the legendary Kirkwood 4* competition in California in 2023. That year she also qualified for the Challenger series and finished 4th overall!
Alenka is based out of Squamish and trains full-time in Whistler. She enjoys BASE jumping while bagging peaks in search of new couloirs and pretty faces that capture her attention. For the rest of the year, when she’s not climbing, she snowboards in the Patagonian backcountry.
In 2024 Alenka accomplished a big goal of snowboarding off a cliff and opening a parachute. Her first snowboard BASE jump!
