“Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sport can create hope where once there was only despair.”

Nelson Mandela

My pool journey

In 2006, as a 7 year old little girl I found out what pool was, when I went for the first time to a pool hall with my father. Back then I didn't know how many doors this game would open for me in life but I treated it seriously, almost as my job right away.

At the age of 12 I’ve won my first national title. At the age of 14 I’ve won my first European title. That proved to me that I belong in here, that I'm ready to keep grinding driven by my ambitions that didn't let me sleep at nights. That's how my long pool journey has started.
