My goals for the 2007 Canada Winter Games
My goal is to win a medal to proudly represent Nunavut at the Canada Winter Games. I also want to meet and play against the country's top players.
My personal role model
My personal role model is Stan Meredyk. Through all of my badminton training, Stan coached me until his retirement last year. Stan taught me perseverence and motivated me to continue playing through any losses and hard times.
Other information that could be of interest to the media
IN the past year, I was chosen as one of 12 Aboriginal Role Models for Canada and recently carried the Canada Winter Games Torch to Alert, Nunavut.
