Summary

She speaks to immigrating to America with her family as refugees from Moldova when she was 5-years-old, learning to speak English, assimilating into American culture, and the role that Judo and MMA played in her development. She also talks about the impact her father had on her athletic career, training, competition, injury, special friendships, and making the jump to professional wrestling.
