Describe how you work in a team.
In a team, I may not be the loudest on the court, but I am always encouraging my teammates with a kind word or support both when spirits are down or when we are winning. I do my best to keep a positive attitude on and off the court. I appreciate feedback from coaches and teammates and I will work hard at applying this feedback in order to improve so that I can contribute to the teams success.

What are your interests outside of sports? Why do you like them?
Outside of sports, I really enjoy being in involved with social and community activism. I think bringing awareness to the community about different social issues is important and can bring us all together in order to create change in a positive way.
I also really love spending time with my friends and family. Swimming at the lake, sitting by the campfire, or just hanging out with the people I care about are some of my favourite things.
Who are your role models and why?
My role models are my parents. They are both very hard working and encourage my sister and I to work hard but also to have have fun while doing it. They believe in me and I know that I can reach my goals with them in my court. They always support me, whether in sport or in school and always in life. I am lucky to have them both.
My other role model is Kristin Bignell. Kristin is my physiotherapist and she has helped me tremendously in the last two years overcoming my injury, teaching me about how to advocate for my needs and learning about my body as a young female athlete. Kristin has inspired me to become a physiotherapist and to follow in her footsteps by helping other young female athletes to stay healthy, injury free and to feel empowered while playing their sport.
Involvement in other sports or extracurricular. Why is it important for you?
My overall health is important to me and it is also important to me to become a faster and stronger athlete. I participated in CrossFit training for two years, twice a week. I always felt amazing after spending the hour or two in the gym. The CrossFit community was always very supportive and helped me to reach many of my fitness goals.
I now participate in team conditioning once a week with my volleyball teammates and I feel energized after working hard and seeing my teammates work just as hard to reach similar goals.
Academic highlights and how you felt when you received them?
When I learned that I was receiving the Honour Roll Award, I felt proud of myself for being able to maintain my grades while playing competitive sport.
What program would you like to attend in school?
I am interested in health sciences. I would like to become a physiotherapist and work with young female athletes.
How do you envision your school life in college/university?
