She began sprinting seriously at a young age in Jamaica. (dhnet.be, 21 Apr 2021)

Originally involved in swimming, cricket and hockey as well as athletics when she lived in South Africa, she took up sprints to fit in with her peers after her family moved to Jamaica. "It's where I majored in sprinting. If you want to fit in and be popular there, you have to be good at athletics. It's pretty brutal, but athletics is the national sport." (dhnet.be, 21 Apr 2021)
