She began judo at age six. She also rode horses as a child and was a ballet dancer from age four. "I did all three for a while. Then, because of a lack of time, I stopped doing ballet first and then riding as well, because I wanted to go to judo training more often." (tokio.judobund.de, 04 Jun 2021)

She followed her brother into the sport. "Even when I was little, I quickly became enthusiastic about judo. My big brother started doing sports and I always watched judo back then. So I really wanted to start judo, but had to wait until I was old enough. I was pretty good at the sport right from the start and when I saw a club colleague preparing for the Olympic Games at the age of 16, I knew I wanted that too." (duale-karriere.de, 24 Oct 2019)
