NWBA Collegiate Women's League (rollt-magazin.de, 07 Apr 2021)

She began the sport at age 14 in Southampton, England. (Athlete, 20 Jul 2016)

She felt left out of physical education lessons at school and her father wanted her to get active so he found an afternoon club where they held weekly training sessions. "Initially, the sport provided me with an opportunity to stay active whilst meeting other people living with disabilities. From there I received an invitation to a GB Development Camp at the age of 14, where I came to the realisation that I wanted to represent Team GB at the Paralympic Games. Several camps later and I attended the 2014 World Championships in Toronto where I made my debut at just 15 years old." (Athlete, 20 Jul 2016; accessyourlife.co.uk, 24 Jul 2020)
