General Interest

General
STROKE DUTIES
She admits that the only time she likes to assume responsibility in life is when she serves as the stroke in coxless four. "It's a hard job with a lot of responsibility. I steer and try to set a good rhythm for everyone to follow. In real life I hate responsibility. I am not the first person you'd pick to care for your child or remember to pay bills, but when it comes to the boat and my teammates, I love it." (worldrowing.com, 01 Sep 2019)

LIFESAVING INCIDENT
In April 2017 during a training session in Torun, Poland, she saw a man jump from a bridge into the river. She was able to save him from drowning before medical crews arrived on the scene. "In my opinion it's nothing extraordinary. It was a natural reaction. I only tried to help this guy. The most important thing is that we are both fine." (onet.pl, 08 Nov 2018)
