Life
In 2015, she was one of three Paralympic athletes who took part in a popular video that was intended to introduce Brazilians to the paralympics as a spectator sport. The video was shot with hidden cameras, and it records the reactions of spectators as the three paralympians as they enter three gyms as disabled people and they then impress observers with their abilities. The video attracted million of viewers and acquaintances who never recognised her as a silver medalist from London.[2]
