Q: What are you looking forward to the most about playing for the Six this season?

A: The inaugural season and being the first NWHL team in Canada. I’m looking forward to having the chance to play a bubble season like other professional sports have done this year.

What’s your favourite hockey memory?

Although I have many, I think my favourite hockey moment was winning the Canada Winter Games with Team Quebec.

Do you have any superstitions? I put my left side equipment first.

How do you unwind after a big game?

I usually like stretching, taking an ice bath, eating a good meal and reflecting on the game; things I could’ve done better and what worked well.

What can you be found doing away from the rink?

I love fishing, spending time with my family and doing outdoor activities.

Did you pick up any quarantine hobbies?

I’ve started reading books a lot and played cards with my family.

Who has been your greatest hockey influence growing up?

My mom. She was a single mother and she made sure my sister and I never missed anything in our lives. She is a really strong woman who also ran her own business. Her courage gave me strength and helped me be the hockey player I am today. I would not be where I am without her.

What other sports did you play growing up?

I played soccer and golf.

Coolest place you’ve ever travelled to?

Ireland and Barcelona.

What advice do you have for a young girl who wants to play professional hockey one day?

Believing in themselves. Have fun playing the game and finding ways to get better. There’s no secret recipe!
