What is the craziest thing you've ever done?

The craziest thing I have ever done is I went back packing with my youth group to the top of Trophy Mountains in Clearwater, BC. I honestly did not think I would make it and when I did, I was so excited! We camped there for one night and even had to hang our food over a cliff at night so the bears would not find it. It was a trip I will never forget.

What Charities have you supported with your time and/or resources over the past two years?

I have taught Sunday school for 2 years in a row now. It’s so incredible to see the children grow up and become more knowledgeable about the world before our eyes. Also, I have volunteered at New Life Mission in the kitchen with my Opa when I had weekdays off.

What would your dream job be?

My “dream job” in life would be a high school student counselor. I would really like to just make life a little bit better for one child and I’ll feel like I’ve done my part. Also, I feel that I could empathize with many things that a student goes through in their high school years.

Name one personal accomplishment that makes you especially proud.

One accomplishment that makes me proud is getting over my stage fright and performing in front of my grad class and our families. I was so nervous, but I got up there and sang as best as I could and I lived through it!

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

The most important thing I want people to know about me is that I’m a Christian. I believe in God and I try my hardest to be more like Jesus in my everyday life.

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

My favorite movie is “A Walk to Remember”. My favorite song is Natasha Beddingfields’ “Wild Horses”. My favorite sport is snowmobiling. My favorite food is Lasagna.

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

I would like to accomplish setting up an anti-bullying campaign if I won the Miss Universe Canada title. I’ve seen too many young people depressed because of one person who has made it their job to bully someone.

A motto that has served you as inspiration?

A motto that has served me as an inspiration is “I can do anything I put my mind to”. It may sound cliché, but it’s so true. As long as I put my all into something, it would all work out.
