OLYMPIC PREPARATIONS
She says her preparations for the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo were affected first by graduating from the University of Michigan in 2019, and then by the break from training and competition in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. "Coming off a really good senior year [in 2019], I decided to give everything I've got to try to qualify for the Olympics. It started rough because I kind of lost my purpose without the college team to swim for. It took me a while to adjust my mindset being a professional athlete. I had to re-figure out what training I needed, and what I was swimming for. While the pandemic almost got me thinking of retiring, it actually gave me a chance to train back home. I made changes to my lift and swim practises this year [2021] in order to find my stroke again. So it is really a dream come true, and a prove that determination hard work really pays off."
