INTERESTING FACT OR EXPERIENCE THAT HELPED SHAPE LIFE: "My dad and two younger brothers armwrestled with me growing up from a young age. In high school, I played basketball, volleyball and was on the swim team. In college, I remember armwrestling a lot, but never knew I could compete in it. Now, I’m obsessed! My competitive nature keeps me wanting to get better and better. Although I was very shy as a teenager, becoming a teacher put me in a position where I had to face my fears of being in front of a crowd. That was also something I had to overcome when I started competing. I feel very fortunate to live in Southern Ontario, where there is a very high caliber of experienced and accomplished pullers.  The team I train with, the Toronto Arm Crushers, is very dedicated and hard working. They keep pushing me to reach higher goals.  And there isn’t enough to be said about the “Armwrestling Family” around North America and the World! My husband is my inspiration.  He’s my biggest fan and helps me achieve the high goals I set for myself.  He’s also my toughest critic.  He studies my videos and finds my mistakes, which helps me improve. He understands and loves the sport, although he doesn’t compete himself.  I couldn’t train as much as I do if he wasn’t so supportive."
UNIQUE FACT: "I’m very driven.  When I set a goal, I work on achieving it.
MOTTO: "Business at the table, Friends off the table!"
BIGGEST ARMWRESTLING ACCOMPLISHMENT: "Winning Nationals in 2015, both arms, and winning Ontario Female puller of the year in 2014 and 2015."
FAVORITE ARMWRESTLING MEMORY: "Left hand win at the Canadian National Championships against Josee Morneau."
BEST ADVICE RECEIVED: "There’s no pain like armwrestling pain after training.  Think of it like growing pains. It will pass, and it just means weakness is leaving your body!"
BIGGEST OBSTACLE FACED AND OVERCAME: "In April of 2013, I was practice pulling with a friend, and she broke her left arm.  It was quite traumatic, and I felt responsible for what happened.  I wanted to quit armwrestling forever, but lots of people around me talked me through it. She was a class-act about the whole thing. Now, I am very careful when I pull with newer pullers."
