As a former professional soccer player and member of the Canadian National Team, my life has been shaped by the power of sport. Today, I continue that journey off the field, focused on athletics, recreation, and education as the program lead for Bridge Through Sport, a partnership between the University of British Columbia and the Musqueam community. 

With a degree from UBC and a background in high-performance athletics, I currently dedicate my work to supporting Musqueam and Indigenous youth through community-driven programming. Bridge Through Sport promotes healthy lifestyles, recreation, and learning while fostering well-being. Our mission is to increase Indigenous student recruitment and retention, elevate visibility for Musqueam-UBC collaboration, and strengthen relationships between the university and Indigenous communities.
