The first sports experience she can remember is accompanying her dad at the track to watch the horses.  It wouldn't be long, however, until she was dribbling, catching and trying to shoot a basketball.  From the land of chocolate, waffles, fries and beer, Jana Raman speaks Flemish, French, English and is now improving her Spanish.  She plays for Belgium's national team and helped them qualify--for the first time in history-- for the Olympics back in February of 2020.  Hopefully they'll actually be able to participate in the summer of 2021.  Jana has worked hard to combine academics and athletics.  She's a licensed Podiatrist and knows what it's like to work all day at the clinic and then go to practice at night.  Here's her story!
