Personal Information:
I would like to thank God, my parents and my coaches for helping me become the best skater and person that I can possibly be. Without you, my dreams will never come true. However, I realize this takes a lot of dedication and hard work of which I am truly committed to do. I train 6 days per week including on-ice training, ballet, and off-ice strength and conditioning. I have had gymnastics and tumbling for cross training exercises. I skate 6-7 sessions per day. My favorite parts of skating are performing, choreographing my own routines, and learning new and challenging elements.
I love school particularly reading, art and languages. I am learning to speak French and Russian. I have a 16 year-old brother who is on a travel hockey team so I get to see him at the rink a lot. Actually, I got interested in figure skating because of him. Thanks big bro! My family is very supportive and enjoys cheering me on during competitions especially my grandparents!
