Name one personal accomplishment (in addition to being a Miss Universe Canada contestant) that makes you especially proud.

What is the most important thing you want people to know about you?

What is your favorite movie, song, sport, and food?

What would you like to accomplish if you win the Miss Universe Canada title?

I would use my position help others in need. Specifically I would support, as well as encourage others support, the Tsunami crisis in Southeast Asia. This is currently an international priority and will require international attention for years to come. I will also use my title as a position of influence to promote awareness of non-profit organizations whose mandate is to support human rights as well as animal rights both in Canada and in other countries (i.e. The Canadian Humane Society).
