OCCUPATION
She works as a CrossFit trainer at a club in Zielona Gora, Poland. "CrossFit is perfect for me because I can combine gymnastic elements with weightlifting. It also helped me bounce back after the disappointment of missing the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. It gave me more distance, let me to focus on something else and have a different perspective."
