Athletic Goals

I have achieved them at the moment.

Favourite Olympic/Sporting Moment

When Simon Whitfield wrote "Sing like Kreek" on his bike handlebars to motivate his Olympic success.

Best Advice You've Ever Received

I love this quote from Bruce Lee: "Remember, success is a journey not a destination. Have faith in your ability."

Being an RBC Athlete means...

I am grateful to RBC for putting its faith in my abilities and transferable skills that were strengthened and honed through sport. I am excited for the opportunity to learn about the banking world and benefit from the training and experience RBC gives to amateur athletes like myself.
