My goals for the 2007 Canada Winter Games
My goals are to win a gold in women's individual foil, to meet other talented athletes, and to have some unforgetable memories.
My personal role model
My Mom is my personal role model. She gives me unconditional support in everything I do. Three times a week she drives me from Nanaimo to Victoria (a 1.5 hour drive each way) to fence. If it weren't for her I wouldn't be able to fence!
Other information that could be of interest to the media
I commute 1.5 hours each way from Nanaimo to get to my club in Victoria BC because Nanaimo doesn't have a fencing club.
I won a bronze in cadet women's foil at the 2006 nationals and 2 golds and a bronze at the 2006 BC provincials.
