Biography
Started: She has been involved with horses since a young age. (hippson.se, 05 May 2012) Reason: She worked at some stables before her accident. "I really enjoyed the job. I trained horses and there were others who raced them. My interest in dressage emerged after my accident. The horses became part of my rehabilitation and, when I realised I would never be able to ride hard again, my interest in dressage took over." (hippson.se, 05 May 2012) Ambition: To compete at the 2024 Paralympic Games in Paris. (ridsport.se, 08 Sep 2023)
