Discipline: Cross-country skiing
Born: May 3, 1992, in Ivrea (TO)

Climbing onto skis at age 4, Greta immediately demonstrated her determination. Since then, she has evolved with her friends – including Francesco De Fabiani – of the Gressoney Monte Rosa Ski Club. She chose cross-country skiing early on by following in the footsteps of her sister who was already racing at a competitive level. As a youth, Greta won 12 medals in the Italian championships for individual and relay. She joined the National Team in her last year as a junior, then alternated years in the Under23 and the A Team categories. She joined the Gruppo Sportivo Fiamme Gialle in 2013. She has participated in four World Championships and two Olympic Games, in Sochi and PyeongChang.
