2014 for Algeria (planetesport.dz, 08 Dec 2020)

She took up the sport in 2000 in Oran, Algeria. (Athlete, 26 Aug 2021)

Her parents encouraged her to get involved in sport. "Once I finished my studies, my parents encouraged me into sport to help overcome my impairment. That's when I joined the Ibtissama club where I met other girls who played wheelchair basketball with the boys. That went on until the arrival of coach Djawad Zigh, who started a women's team. A little time later, the national federation started a women's championship. It was hard at first for me to master both the chair and the ball, but after a few players adopted me wholeheartedly into the team, my desire and motivation took care of the rest."
