Olympic story

About the author

Pierre Pillet

The love for sports turned me into a journalist. The field forged my professional career. At the age of 17, I took my first steps on Swiss television Léman Bleu. I then refined my experience with a professional training course (CFJM). In 2021, I covered my first Olympic Games in Tokyo with Léman Bleu.
