I have a diploma in Broadcast Journalism from Seneca College and a post-graduate diploma in Sports Journalism from Centennial College.
I have an extensive background in hockey as I have been playing since the age of 12. I have played houseleague, select, rep, high school, and men’s college hockey. I was drafted to the Burlington Barracudas of the Canadian Women’s Hockey League (CWHL) in August 2011, but got cut from the team after training camp. I am currently playing competitive ball hockey in the Ottawa-Vanier Women’s Ball Hockey League and summer hockey in the open division of the Minto Ice Hockey League.
Tennis is another sport I love and have been playing for a long time. I have been playing recreational tennis for about 10 years. I also played on my high school team and represented my tennis club in a tournament in which I placed second in the town.
My ultimate goal was to be become a sports reporter on TV but recently I’ve been re thinking that. I still want a career in sports but am now looking at media/public relations, event promotions or marketing positions.
Health and nutrition are very important to me and I enjoy researching both subjects and spreading my knowledge to others. I would love to write for a fitness or health magazine in the future and also become a personal trainer on the side. I may even decide to go back to school for a fitness and health promotions program in college, or a kiniseology program at university.
I have a wonderful fiance who is extremely supportive of my hockey career and life goals. We will be getting married September 2012.
Oh, last but not least, I bleed Bleu, Blanc, Rouge.

Welcome to Ottawa. Surprised to see you have linked up with a beer league. It is a low rules, lousy refs, pickup league.
The recognized SR AA equivalent to what you played last year, is the Ottawa Ice Cats SR AA, or the Ottawa Roadrunners SR AA.
Both of which are registered with Hockey Canada, and OWHA, and will be playing in the Provincials April 2012. See ottawaicecats.ca
Way to go champ!
