Musademba started skating at the age of 7 because she went with her best friend to the rink and decided to try it for herself ... Attends Georgetown Day School ... Has volunteered with the Red Cross ... Biggest influence in her life is Michael Jordan ... Hobbies include making art and biking ... Has a passion for the environment ... Not many people know she is half Filipino and half Zimbabwean ... Her father worked as an accountant in Iraq for two years ... If she could have dinner with any one person, it would be Michael Jordan so she could ask him "about his journey as an athlete and how he overcame obstacles and doubts." ... If she could meet any living celebrity, it would be Nelson Mandela ... Would like to do anything that helps others after her skating career.
