Mes objectifs pour les Jeux d'hiver du Canada 2007

To compete to the best of my ability while exhibiting fair play qualities both on and off of the court. I want to soak up every moment and show Team Ontario pride. As an older athlete I also want to be a good role model for other members of Team Ontario. I also hope to come home with a gold medal!

Mon modèle, mon inspiration

My sister is definitely my role model. Since I was little I wanted to do everything she did and she made sure I was able to. She has always looked out for me and I am very proud of her.

Autres renseignements me concernant qui pourraient intéresser les médias

I am a 4th year Honours Sociology Student at McMaster University. I hope to become an Occupational Therapist and work at Bloorview Kids Rehab where I was a client for my first 18 years. I have been an ambassador for the center for about 9 years and love volunteering there in the summer.
I am a track 3 skier but have chosen not to compete. I love to ski with friends every chance I get! I also love anything to do with flying or heights and went paragliding in Victoria BC for the first time in June 2006 and I can't wait to go back!
