My journey

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.
