From an early age I always had a passion for sports and the competitive nature. Track and field came very natural for me since I always liked training in many different fields. Fast forward a couple of years and I had already won my first national competition.
That was the first spark that made me realize that I could turn my dream into a reality. But still I had a long way to go. The journey has been a rollercoster but we have arrived to this point and I do not plan on slowing down.
Here are some of my biggest awards during my career. Some of these moments still feel like a dream.
