Early life and education

Guion herself competed in the women's -44kg event[3] where she placed sixth among eight competitors by lifting 70 kilograms.[4]
At the 2014 Asian Para Games in Incheon, Guion won a silver medal in the women's -45kg event by lifting 70 kilograms and in the 2017 World Para Powerlifting Championships in Mexico City, Guion placed eight by lifting the same weight in the same weight category.[2] She won another silver in the 2018 Asian Para Games in Jakarta in the women's -45kg event behind China's Guo Lingling of China.[5]
