Tell, please, how did you come to armwrestling?

– Michelle Opperman, Terence Opperman's sister, introduced me to armwrestling at the age of 16. I did armwrestling as per occasion due to other sport activities and job commitments. I had very little time to practice or participate, but I started again this year with Terrance Opperman as my mentor & coach.

I have always had a passion for any sport. I chose armwrestling again with the inspiration of Terence Opperman whom I appreciate for all my support and guidance.

Will you pull at Zloty Tur?

– Yes, I will pull at Zloty Tur this year. It's my first international armwrestling competition that I will attend to, but hope for many more to come. There is always room for improvement, but with the guidance of Terence I'm sure I can go from strength to strength.

I don't expect any results at this stage in time. I'm very nervous and very excited to see what Zloty is all about.

Who do you consider the most difficult opponent?

– To be honest with you, I don't know who I'll be facing and pulling at the table.
