My goals for the 2007 Canada Winter Games
My goal for the 2007 Canada Winter Games is to come home with the gold medal after putting on a good performance. I hope to represent Ontario in the best way possible and reach success.
My personal role model
My role model has to be my father. I say this because he has made tremendous sacrifices for me to have a better life than he had and he continues to make huge sacrifices to allow me to keep my wonderful lifestyle.
Other information that could be of interest to the media
I used to play basketball before boxing and only started training as a hobby. Basketball was my number one priority until I fell in love with boxing and had to change sports even without my parents' support.
