"I take a lot of responsibility in terms of using my platform to carry the sport into the right direction. Because I know that you’ve had trailblazers before me. Pioneers, grandmothers, mothers. Amazing, badass women who fought for us to get to the place where we’re at today, and I genuinely think that we need to carry that responsibility to make room for the next generation."
