Memorable sporting achievement |
Competing at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. "It gave me the chills. It was better than I expected. When we entered, I heard the crowd cheering, and I got goosebumps instantly. I might say that was the peak of my career. The 2011 Pan American Games in Guadalajara, Mexico, was also very special. It was my first adult Pan Ams and we got the bronze medal."
