Hometown: I’ve moved around so much – home is where my bike is!
I’ve been cycling since I was a little kid riding my bike to school every morning. The joy of feeling the wind in my hair as I cruise around has never stopped.
What is your favourite place to ride in New Brunswick? Anywhere I can access right from my front door. I love making every ride an adventure, whether that means finding less-traveled trails, or pushing into the forest and onto gravel roads.
What is your favourite post ride treat? A cold beer and a great burger!
What is something that you have been proud to accomplish while riding your bike? Completing a 6-day bikepacking trip through the Andes Mountains in Colombia this year on my gravel bike. Getting to explore a new culture, meet interesting people and tasting a lot of delicious new food.
What are some of the abilities and skills that you would like to highlight that you bring to Velo NB? With a degree in Kinesiology, my focus is all about bringing physical activity and fun to more people in an accessible way. I love community engagement and grassroots initiatives, and I look forward to using my background in human movement and physical activity for fun to join and continue the grow a welcoming, active cycling culture in New Brunswick.
