Biography:
I first picked up badminton at the age of 8, but it wasn’t until I was 12 that I really got serious about training. My dedication propelled me to further hone my skills until I was 15. Subsequently, I made the pivotal decision to relocate to New Zealand. For the past 2 years, I’ve been fully immersed in training and competing in the vibrant badminton scene here in New Zealand, and I am eagerly looking forward to continuing my badminton journey here.
