Alenka is backcountry snowboarder, BASE jumper and life lover based in Squamish BC. 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.

She enjoys BASE jumping while bagging peaks in search of new couloirs and pretty faces that capture her attention. Her summers are spent BASE jumping in Europe and shredding the Patagonian backcountry for the second dose of winter! In 2023 she founded an organization called LUX SNOW, where she takes women from all across the world into the world of ski touring and splitboarding.

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 star events and ended up winning the legendary Kirkwood 4 star competition in California in 2023. That year she also qualified for the Challenger series and finished 4th overall worldwide.

In 2024 Alenka accomplished a big goal of snowboarding off a cliff and opening a parachute. Her first snowboard BASE jump! The process was highlighted in a beautiful cinematic film called “The Beginning” by Pachamama Films
