In 2019, Roberts began weightlifting on a team called XIOS Strength and Conditioning. She credits her Filipino coach, Andrew DelaCruz, with seeing potential in her strength and power.
DelaCruz took her on his team to become a 59 kilogram Olympic weightlifter. Since beginning her training with him, Roberts has competed on multiple national stages and received many medals in her weight class.
Recently, she qualified for the 2021 USA Weightlifting Senior Nationals by lifting a total of 166 kilograms (approximately 365 pounds) as her combined total for the snatch and clean and jerk.
