A daughter of a Swedish mother and a German father,[4] Aicher grew up in Sundsvall where she started skiing and joined the local Slalomklubb. Later, she moved with her parents to Engelberg (Switzerland) and then back to Sundsvall.[5]

In March 2019 she won the U16 Slalom of the FIS Children Cup, representing Sweden.[5] Later that year, she took part in her first FIS races. In 2020, she joined the German Ski Association, for the reason of ″better training opportunities in the Alps″.[3] Making her debut in the Alpine Skiing Europa Cup in December 2020, she took her first podium in Slalom in January 2021.[6]

Three weeks later, she represented Germany at the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships 2021, where she won bronze medal in the team event.
