About Me

I love to live outside of my comfort zone!
My favourite memories include representing Canada at the Latin American Baseball Classic in the Dominican Republic, placing 4th at North America's largest beach volleyball tournament in Oregon, kiteboarding in British Columbia and traveling mainland China.
