What she loves most about swimming is the feeling of freedom in the water and how every stroke pushes her to improve. She enjoys seeing her progress, competing, and making friends. Swimming strengthens not only her body, but also her mind.
Her biggest inspiration is her mom, who taught her that discipline and heart are stronger than talent. She also looks up to swimmers like Katie Ledecky for her humility and perseverance both in and out of the pool.
One of the proudest moments was watching her finish her first regional swim meet. Despite her nerves, she swam with determination and beat her personal best. It reflected her hard work, courage, and love for the sport.
