WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE JUDO MEMORY?
I have a few favorites, my most recent memory is winning my first European competition last year in Sarrbrucken, Germany with my husband, Miguel. I had 5 fights and he was sitting in the chair coaching me for every single one. Seeing his face and making him proud was a very special moment for me.

WHO DO YOU LOOK UP TO OR WHO IS YOUR ROLE MODEL AND WHY?
I have always looked up to Sabrina Filzmoser from Austria since I was a junior! Not only is she amazing at Judo, but she does Judo because she truly loves and enjoys the sport. She has a rare passion for the sport and I think that is important.

WHAT IS THE IMPACT JUDO HAS HAD ON YOUR LIFE?
Judo has given me a strong work ethic, confidence and it has taught me to be adaptable in any kind of situation.
