Biography
Started: She took up Para canoe sprint in 2018 and began competing the following year. (1242.com, 08 Jul 2024) Reason: She began swimming at age three and became inspired to pursue the sport after watching the opening ceremony of the 2000 Paralympic Games in Sydney. She switched to Para rowing while at university as she felt she had a greater chance of competing in rowing at the Paralympic Games. A right leg injury prevented her from continuing with Para rowing, so she switched to Para canoe sprint. (1242.com, 08 Jul 2024)
