Sporting relatives:

Her partner Max Hoff has competed in canoe sprint internationally for Germany. He won gold in the K4 1000m at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, bronze in the K1 1000m at the 2012 Olympic Games in London, and competed at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. He also won gold and silver medals at the world championships in 2019. (SportsDeskOnline, 01 Apr 2020; Planet Canoe Facebook page, 25 Aug 2019)

She began rowing at age 13. "At first I did not want to row, but my brother had formed a rowing group with a teacher and they needed students to participate, so I was sort of forced to come along. I went to a training session just before the summer holidays, and enjoyed it. Since I was always relatively tall, the coach told me to come back. It took me a while before I went back, but once I started going regularly, I stayed with it." (blog.tinongo.de, 20 Jan 2020)

She likes the contrasting elements of the sport. "Rowing requires strength to get the boat up to speed, but lightness plays a huge part in rowing fast. The sport is precise but at the same time loose, powerful but at the same time light, monotonous but also versatile. If I don't train for a week, I miss it terribly and all I want to do is get back on the water." (lsv-sh.de, 21 Dec 2019; Vision Gold YouTube channel, 30 May 2019)

To win a medal at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. (lsv-sh.de, 21 Dec 2019)

She has three training sessions a day, five or six days a week. (blog.tinongo.de, 20 Jan 2020)

Philosophy:

"Rowing is not everything in life, it is the only thing in life." (blog.tinongo.de, 20 Jan 2020)

In 2018 she was named Female Athlete of the Year in Schleswig-Holstein in a poll organised by the regional sports department. (lsv-sh.de, 21 Dec 2019)

General Interest

General
QUAD PREFERENCE
She has raced in double sculls but prefers the quad boat. "I prefer rowing the quad. I enjoy rowing and working hard for my teammates, knowing that they will benefit. There's a sense of team spirit that comes from working together. In singles, for example, I think I would lack the motivation, so I prefer to row with others. I like to know that there is someone in the boat that is even stronger than me and that I can go faster with that person." (blog.tinongo.de, 20 Jan 2020)
