Fun Facts

What is one thing that you can’t live without (besides bowls of course)?
Travel….and of course, lip balm. Some things never change.
Who is your favourite athlete?
Bobby Orr . Bobby was a real competitor on the ice, and a nice guy off the ice, very clutch and very dependable. A true athlete.
What is your favourite bowls memory?
There are many, however, I think my favorite bowls memory was winning my first provincial title in the women’s fours provincial playdowns which saw us travel to Winnipeg for my first National competition. Fortunately, we won the Canadian Nationals that year, which provided our team the opportunity to represent Canada at Tiger Bowls in Hong Kong and Shenzhen, China. I was 14. It was at that very moment that I realized I wanted to travel the world playing bowls.
How would your best friend describe you in three words?
Shy! Quiet! And Sensitive! (And I can wear every color)!

Knowing that practice, perseverance and performance are the key to success and I am driven by these motivators to succeed.
What is one thing that people would be surprised to know about you?
I scored a supporting role in the Corner Gas Movie as Trumpet Player #2.
If you’re not at the lawn bowling club, where can we find you?
Hopefully on an airplane travelling to an exotic destination. Taking off in 3…2…1…

A Pepperoni and Mushroom Pizza at the best restaurant in Regina– Houston Pizza.
