She joined Santa Teresa in the 2016 summer.[7] She suffered a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament during a training on 6 December 2016, receiving medical discharge on 14 June 2017.[8]

gollark: You have to make tradeoffs between saving lives now and keeping the economy from imploding, and can't just go "we'll save one extra life even if it costs a trillion $".
gollark: We use a lot of economic output on stuff like healthcare and education and whatnot which have a large impact on future quality of life.
gollark: As I have said a lot, the economy does *matter*.
