She began playing wheelchair basketball in 2016 in Gouda, Netherlands. (ad.nl, 08 Dec 2018; goudsepost.nl, 15 May 2019)
:
She was involved in able-bodied hockey, rollerblading and ice skating before her impairment. She initially tried wheelchair hockey before she took up wheelchair basketball. "Unfortunately I had to stop with hockey and ice skating. With hockey I enjoyed hitting the ball hard and running across the field, but this was no longer possible in a wheelchair. When I was doing my rehabilitation in hospital I was never angry as I saw people far worse off than me. I joked that someday I will compete at the Paralympics."
