Start sporting career
She took up gymnastics in 2002.
Reason for taking up the sport
At age three she was inspired by watching the Olympic Games. "I was like, 'I want to do that. I have no idea what that is but I want to do it.'" She also did not have any brothers or sisters, so her mother enrolled her into gymnastics to meet other children. "I was a very energetic child."
Ambitions
To compete at the 2020 Olympic Games. (nbcsandiego.com, 15 Jan 2019)
Trainings
She trains six days a week for a total of 30 hours.
