What is the importance of poker in your life?
“Poker represents both a challenge and an opportunity for me. It allows me to test my discipline, focus, and strategic thinking, while also giving me the chance to grow in an environment where women are still underrepresented. Every tournament and every hand teaches me something new, and I truly enjoy the process of learning and improving. Beyond the game itself, poker has also introduced me to an amazing community and opened doors to connect with people from all walks of life.”
In your opinion, what is the importance of the Women’s Committee?
“The Women’s Committee is crucial because it empowers women in poker by providing visibility, voice, and strength. It builds a community of support where we motivate each other, share experiences, and help dismantle the barriers that sometimes keep women away from the game. For me, it’s about leaving a legacy — making sure that the next generations of women see poker as a place where they truly belong and can shine equally.”
