She first tried shot put at age eight at the Boynton Beach Track Club in Greenacres, FL, United States of America. (bakersfield.com, 20 Jul 2021)

She trained in sprint events, basketball and cheerleading during high school, but her coach Clyde Harris encouraged her to pursue throwing events. She began focusing on shot put in her junior year of high school. "I wanted to eat all the time. I got a little bigger and I started lifting weights a little bit. That's when I got into the shot put." She decided to focus solely on throwing events when universities became interested in recruiting her on a throwing scholarship. (bakersfield.com, 20 Jul 2021)
