Biography
Started: She took up the sport in 2017 in Palermo, Italy. (bwfpara.tournamentsoftware.com, 15 May 2021) Reason: "I found this sport in middle school thanks to my physical education teacher, [who is] currently president of my club. I started to learn from him in the fourth year of high school, around the age of 17 or 18, about Para badminton, and I found the Paralympic world there. I had never thought of competing, I thought it would be just leisure, then I realised that there was more." (repubblica.it, 16 Mar 2021) Ambition: To compete at the 2024 Paralympic Games in Paris.
