What is the craziest thing you have ever done?

The craziest thing I have ever done is that I drove a public bus without knowing how to do it.

What charity have you supported with your time over the past two years?

St-Louis residence
Lévis Hospital

What would be your dream job in life?

I would like to live in a residence for older people in Florida. There, everything would be free for me (food, a beautiful place to live, etc.). I would be happy just to see these older people smile and feel better each day because I would be there for them.

Name one personal accomplishment that makes you proud.

When I was younger, I was very shy and dance is my passion, so I had to be more extroverted to communicate this passion to the public. I didn’t want to dance in my first year of secondary school because I was too shy, but the next year, I did it and now, I think that it helped me being a better person because I can say that I’m not shy anymore and that I love being on a stage, I like being with other people.

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

I am absolutely not a superficial girl. I would like everybody to know that I am open minded and that everybody is welcomed near me. I’m always happy and I like when the others are happy when they are with me. I don’t judge someone by his look and I appreciate everything life is giving me.

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

My favorite movie is Hitch, because I like comedies. I think it’s important to laugh because it helps us staying real and young. My favorite song is Believer, by Christina Milian, because I like singing and playing piano and I think this song is the one that can bring me in another world, Christina Milian’s abilities to sing and to play piano are incredible. My favourite sport is Dance, because we can express ourselves by moving and because it’s beautiful to see 30 people dancing together. Finally, my favourite food is a poutine, but without fries…!

What would you like to accomplish if you win Miss Univers Canada?

I would do anything I could to help people that are trying to find drugs that could fight psychiatric diseases like schizophrenia or major depression, for example. I would like these drugs to have a long term effect instead of giving to patients different drugs everyday.

A motto that as served you as inspiration.

Beauty is in the eye of the one who sees you; because I think that everyone has a little something that makes him/her beautiful.
