TOKYO WITHDRAWAL She and her partner Evangelia Platanioti competed in the preliminary stages of the duet competition at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo but were later forced to withdraw when Platanioti tested positive for COVID-19. She was also unable to compete in the team event in Japan after the Greek squad withdrew from the competition due to more positive COVID-19 cases. (newsit.gr, 12 Aug 2021; kathimerini.gr, 03 Aug 2021; npr.org, 03 Aug 2021)
PARTNERSHIP She believes she has a strong relationship with her duet partner Evangelia Platanioti. "With Evangelia we are a very close-knit duet. We have been working together since we were very young and as a duet in the national team we have been collaborating for many years. In order to achieve your goals and enjoy it above all, you love and be attached to your partner. You laugh together, you cry together, you spend the whole day and your whole life together. We have found our own codes and we have a great time together. Of course, sometimes we come into conflict, but one supports the other. So in both the easy and the difficult, we are always together."
