When she started attending Sarasota Military Academy her mother told her she had to participate in a sport, so she took up shooting. "I was bad [at first]. Like, really bad. I could not figure out the positions. I'm small, so it was difficult to hold and control my gun sometimes." After being told she would not be good enough to reach the sport's highest levels, she was inspired to start training seriously on her own. (yourobserver.com, 16 Jan 2020)
