“It’s a relief and an exciting moment. I’ve been working towards this my whole life—it’s been my main goal. It’s weird to go from a very stressful situation to one of extreme relief and comfort. This is just the next step on the staircase and I’m not on the floor that I want to be at—London’s next.”
