WHAT EMOTION DO YOU THINK YOU WILL FEEL WHEN YOU STEP ONTO THE MAT FOR YOUR FIRST MATCH AT THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS?
Excitement. I am very excited as this is my first time going to the Worlds. It is the highest level tournament I’ve been to so far.

WHAT WOULD IT MEAN TO YOU TO COME HOME WITH A MEDAL?
It would mean a lot to me! All of my hard work would pay off.

WHO IS THE FIRST PERSON YOU CALL WHEN YOU WIN A MEDAL?
My mom. She is helps me the most with planning my travel and getting to training camps.
