Career
A promising swimmer since childhood, she became an athlete with disability category S8 following a motorbike accident that left her without use of her right arm.
She has competed in two Paralympic Games (2004 Athens and 2008 Beijing), winning one gold and one silver medal. She also took part in the IPC Swimming World Championships in Mar del Plata (Argentina) in 2002 and in Durban (South Africa) in 2006, winning 2 silver medals.

gollark: Yes, it does make sense business-wise, I was just saying that I do not like them doing that.
gollark: I think the way it works is that if your ebook is under Kindle Unlimited, it can *only* be provided/sold through Amazon.
gollark: I'm not sure about "most", but definitely quite a lot. They have some sort of weird exclusivity thing going on, which I don't like much (not as an author, it just isn't very good for the market).
gollark: gollark finds it weird that cameron is referring to himself in the third person.
