She took up the sport in 1994 at age 20 in Italy. (Athlete, 17 May 2016)
:
She was invited to try table tennis at a local club, and she fell in love with the sport immediately. "I started playing against able-bodied table tennis players, and they accepted me right away, but there was always a difference between me and them that helped push me on and become stronger. In 2007 I participated in the Italian championships for able-bodied athletes and I won a gold medal against opponents who were on their feet. This was a kind of revenge for me and fuelled my ability to overcome difficulties." (Verona Daily Facebook page, 16 Mar 2021)
