Although I was born on January 13, 1994 in Lethbridge, Alberta, I wouldn’t say that was when and where my life began. My life began with my first breath of country air, on the farm I’ve lived on my entire life thus far. My residence, four miles south of Coaldale, Alberta, is an enormous part of who I am today and this, as well as my family, influences my lifestyle to a large extent. A love and respect for the outdoors and the environment, as well as the importance of hard work and perseverance, has been impressed upon me throughout my upbringing. I am the youngest child in my family, including my extended family. I have two brothers, Kevin and Mark, who have crafted me into the competitive person I am today; however, their excellence in everything they attempt can be intimidating and pressuring at times. I am very involved in sports, playing volleyball, basketball, and soccer; I also ski during the winter months. I seem to be busy all year round! I also play the flute in the school band, and volunteer in my community. Currently, I am a soccer coach for Under-6 players in Coaldale. Being an active member of St. Ambrose Parish, I am vigorously involved in my Catholic faith, and place God as a top priority in my life. In my spare time (which I never seem to have a lot of), I enjoy running, dirtbiking, and reading. During the summer months, I work at the Coaldale Pool as a lifeguard, and enjoy swimming.
