I have been a member of the Canadian mogul skiing team since 2018, and I have competed in two World Championships as well as the Milan-Cortina Games. I have just started a Bachelor’s degree in physiotherapy at Laval University and I work as a receptionist between training camps and competitions. I would like to become a physiotherapist for elite athletes and give back to the sporting community. In fact, I am involved with Femmes dans le Sport, an organisation dedicated to supporting the health of female athletes.
In recent years, I’ve developed a strong interest in getting involved beyond my sport and making a difference. I believe I can thrive on the Athletes’ Commission and bring many strengths to the table. Among other things, I have strong leadership skills: I’m the oldest female athlete on my team, and have therefore served as a mentor to several teammates for the past four years. This responsibility has helped me gain confidence when advocating for my views with leaders in my organization. I’m a good communicator and a good listener, which makes me someone people enjoy working with. In fact, my role as a receptionist at Physio Élite requires teamwork, so this is nothing new to me. I also have a strong interest in political issues, which are playing an increasingly significant role in the world of sports. In my view, advocating for athletes’ rights is a priority, as is providing them with maximum financial support. The recent increase in the PAA and the financial relief athletes have experienced as a result are proof that the work done by the Athletes’ Commission makes a difference; I, too, want to be part of that difference. In conclusion, I care deeply about athletes’ well-being and want to do my part to support them, and the Athletes’ Commission is the place to make that happen.
