Start sporting career
She took up trampoline gymnastics in 2011 after switching from artistic gymnastics. She also played football while in high school, but left the sport after breaking her ankle.

I also got free cardio in a fun way." (unt.se, 26 Jan 2020, 21 Apr 2016; om.svenskaspel.se, 01 Oct 2019)
