I told myself that I would have to use this opportunity to challenge myself. When I was in the rehabilitation centre I set myself the goal of qualifying for the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games. I did not yet know in which sport I was going to pursue this ambition. Then at the end of 2019, I was introduced to rowing at a sports discovery day organised at my rehabilitation centre."
