RELOCATING TO UTAH
After being named Short Track Development Female Skater of the Year in 2020, she and her mother relocated to Utah where she joined the Short Track Junior National Program and trained under the guidance of coach Li Geng. "She really helped me analyse the parts of my technique that hadn't gotten a lot of attention before so I was able to fix the way I skated and adjust my technique and form. Her programmes are really well suited for me. She really matches what each skater needs, and that has really helped me continue to improve and not just plateau." (seattletimes.com, 22 Jan 2022)

She began practising rhythmic gymnastics and figure skating while she was living in the Republic of Korea. She started speed skating after moving back to the United States of America with her family at age six. "I only started a sport when I was younger because I had such terrible coordination and my legs were so weak that I would fall down just walking. My parents said they needed to put me in a sport so I would be able to run around normally like the other kids."
