1. What is your most
memorable moment in sport?
The first
time I made provincials when I was in the Burling Swimming Club for
Rodney Thomas and when I made the CIS championships in the 200 metre
butterfly my first year at LU. Although I remember nothing about the
race itself.
2. What is your most embarrassing
moment in sport?
Not to sure it is embarrassing but for sure disappointing, missing my
CIS cut in my second and third year at LU.
3. What is the best part about playing sports at Laurentian University?
The
family atmosphere at LU is my favourite thing. We do not have a lot of
sports here so most of the athletes know each other pretty well.
4. What are your pre-game rituals?
I like to
not think about the race at all and just have fun with my teammates.
5. What is your favorite pre-game meal?
A Big Steak.
6. Do you play any other sports?
Not any
more but I used to figure skate.
7. You love swimming because…
I love to race and I love to
be with my team. Swimming, especially this year wouldn’t be possible
for me without them
8. What is the motto you live by?
Eat,
Sleep, Swim
9. Advice you would give a young swimmer?
Always
give it everything you got and when you are in high school and are
missing out on parties because you have to swim at 5:30 am the next day
and feel like you want to quit. Keep swimming even harder because
university swimming is the best type of swimming there is.
10. If you could change one thing about swimming, it would be?
The 5 am
on deck practices, I don’t mind getting up early but having to wake up
at 4:30 to be ready to swim at 5 is just crazy sometimes.
11. What is your best non-athletic talent?
Telling
stupid pointless nonsense stories
12. What is your favorite thing about Sudbury?
I love
how the Sudbury community gives so much support to the school and
Athletics. It truly helps out so much and we are all so grateful.
13. If there were one word to
describe you, it would be?
Caring
14. If you could witness one moment in history, it would be?
JFK’s
Assassination
15. Who has influenced your swimming career the most?
My parents, although neither of them ever swam they taught me to be
determined, never give up and to go for my goals. They have always been
my biggest form of social support as well as financial.
