General Interest

General
JUGGLING SPORT AND STUDIES
She says she might be late in finishing her business studies at the University of Mannheim in Germany due to overlapping schedules with playing hockey. "Unfortunately, it still happens from time to time [speaking in 2020] that I cannot take part in some exams due to overlapping deadlines, so my studies may take a little longer." (team-tokio-mrn.de, 01 Jan 2020)

TENNIS
She played tennis at youth national level but decided to quit and fully focus on hockey at age 11. "I was even in the national team. But at some point I had to make a decision. In tennis you train alone. In hockey you are on the pitch with the team. You win together, you lose together." (rheinpfalz.de, 31 Mar 2016)
