My goals for the 2007 Canada Winter Games

Well to shoot better then the other girls but to also get another personal best and to win a metal and enjoy myself.

My personal role model

My role model is Monica Pinette, who is a Modern Petathlon Athlete. She was the first women in Canada to make the Olypmics in Modern Pentathlon.

Other information that could be of interest to the media

I did Modern Pentathlon for several years before commiting myself as a shooter.
