Jenn’s dream of becoming an Olympian was first
sparked at an Edmonton newsstand. While browsing the Sports
Illustrated Barcelona Olympics issue, she was enthralled
by the power and determination in the athlete’s eyes.
Jenn decided right then and there that one day she would
be an Olympian.
Jenn came onto the Canadian mogul scene in 2000 at the
age of 16, making her presence known when she captured
both National Titles in moguls at Mont-Gabriel, Qc.
Resides in Montreal, Quebec. “It has provided me
with great opportunities to further my fitness, train on
the new water ramp facility in Québec and attend
McGill University.”
Jenn is an Athlete Ambassador with Right To Play, an
athlete-driven humanitarian organization that works to
improve the lives of the world’s most disadvantaged
children and the communities in which they live by using
sport and play for development, health and peace.
Jenn is also an Ambassador for an Edmonton-based community
organization, Kids Kottage Foundation that helps ensure
children are safe and receive the support they deserve
by providing care for them when their families are in crisis.
Jennifer is also a Honourary Ambassador for KidSport,
an organization that operates at a national, provincial
and community level to assist children by overcoming financial
barriers that prevent or limit their participation in organized
sport.
She admires her parent’s dedication and hard work
in life and cites Danica Patrick as a role model both in
terms of striving for excellence and determination in breaking
down barriers.
Jennifer intends to complete her Bachelor of Commerce
degree and continues her studies at McGill University while
preparing for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver.
