Other information that could be of interest to the media
I am a multi-sport athlete. Growing up I played volleyball, baseball, basketball (stand-up), and rugby from elementary school until the end of high school. Now, I still play baseball in the National Capital Men's Baseball League in Ottawa for the Nepean Brewers, as well as coach in the organization that I grew up playing for, Kanata Little League Baseball Association. Last summer while coaching my 9 and 10 year old competitive team, I dyed my hair blue as part of the team colours.
I attend Algonquin College in Ottawa, taking my first year in the Developmental Services Worker program. I still volunteer and coach at my old school, St. Paul Catholic High School.
