She went to swimming lessons with her older sister Aisling. Swimming began as a hobby, but coaches soon noticed she had natural talent for the sport. "My parents loved swimming, and we lived in a building with a swimming pool. On the weekends, my parents would bring me and my older sister to the pool to teach us to swim. It came to the point where they couldn't teach my sister anything more because she wouldn't listen to them, so they brought her to a swimming club close by. When I was younger, I really hated swimming. Different coaches told my parents I had talent and I shouldn't give up swimming. The more I swam, the more I realised I actually liked swimming."
