1. What are your thoughts on representing Team Canada at a major international event, and most specifically at the 2019 FISU Summer Universiade?
It’s always an honor to compete for team Canada and to do the upmost to showcaseCanada and bring pride to our nation and the fact that we get to do so in the samecountry we’re the FISU Universiade all began is truly amazing.
2. Is this the first time you have been selected to represent Canada on the international stage or at the Universiade? Current track record (national and/or international)?
I have been lucky enough to represent Canada internationally a few times in the past, most recently at the 2018 SC World Championships in Hangzhou, China.

The beautiful architecture and, of course, amazing food that Italy is known for.
