Personal Information

     I have two brothers, Jules and Alain, and a sister, Chantelle. Jules is a year younger than I and actively involved in volunteer organizations in Edmonton. Alain has carried on with the family tradition in 2011 by commencing his first year at the University of Alberta, and Chantelle will in 2012 complete her last year of high school, graduating from the same school as myself.

2010 - 2011 Season

     Racing in Canmore at the 2011 National Championships just felt right at home for me. Despite a season spent somewhat injured, I managed to pull through for some of the better races in my undergrad. Hitting the ski trails and the books go hand in hand for me while I study to complete my BSc in environmental science, a field which I believe is linked with cross country skiing in more ways than most people realize. I will work to graduate (2012) with the highest marks possible and with my best performances on skis yet at the 2012 National Championships in Mont Ste Anne QC.
