“My experience with doping is definitely not the scenario people expect; I was coerced into taking performance enhancing drugs at the age of 16 by a coach who abused me for the remainder of my career. Failing a drug test was a relief and my saving grace; my day-to-day reality was much scarier. It is important for me to raise awareness of the fact that not all doping stories are the athlete’s personal choice - before judging and sanctioning, we must look at the bigger picture. I hope that my voice helps protect athletes against abuse and intimidation into doping and contribute to changing society’s “winning at all costs” mentality.”
