Improve her performance from the PyeongChang 2018 Olympic Winter Games at Beijing 2022. "A lot of athletes have said the first Games that you go to it's just for experience and you really want to go back a second or third time and put in your best performances. I never really understood what they meant until well after the Games, when I was able to look back and kind of see how burnt out I was." (winnipegfreepress.com, 26 Sep 2020)
