Favorite Quote: “If you want to go fast, paddle fast”
How you got into the sport: I was placed in a canoe when I was an infant. Years later my dad took me to some small races in New England, there I met Jamie McEwan, who suggested I go up to Canada and race at Junior Olympics. I realized slalom was pretty nifty and the rest is history.
