Tell us how they made a difference and share 3 words that describe who that person is to you.
My mum has always been a huge supporter of my athletic career.  More importantly though,  she has been a huge inspiration. She has completed three Ironman Triathlons and has shown me how strong physically and mentally she is. Watching her train and compete in different events has really shown me how you can push your body and your boundaries to succeed.  

Strong
Loving

Any song by Beyonce!

What is the best part about representing Canada?
The best part about representing Canada is stepping on the field with my teammates in the Canadian uniform on game days. I love being part of a united group that is working tirelessly towards a common goal.
