General Interest

TWIN SISTER
Has played with her twin sister Kayla at Princeton University since 2018. "As my junior hockey career came to a conclusion, I was faced with the difficult task of choosing the university where I would play division 1 hockey. My twin sister Kayla, whom I played the last couple years of hockey with, was also going through this process. Although we never planned to go to school together, in the end, we both chose to bring our talents to the University of Princeton." (voyageurprofile.wordpress.com, 21 Oct 2019)

(pattykaz.com, 18 Feb 2020)

Second player to play with the Canadian national U18, development and senior team in the same calendar year (2018), after Natalie Spooner (CAN).
