General Interest

General
TARGETING TOKYO
She says that, although she has been most successful on floor exercise, she and coach Elvira Saadi intend to fortify her all-around programme for the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. "Our plan right now is to just keep working on the same training path, ensuring I stay strong and healthy and take things day by day. Floor is one of my main events, but I have been focusing on improving in the all-around. I've worked really hard to get where I am today, overcoming many obstacles, so I just need to remain focused and do my best in hopes of representing Canada in Tokyo." (intlgymnast.com, 05 Mar 2020)

CALIFORNIA BOUND
In February 2020 she signed a national letter of intent to begin studying at and competing for the University of California, Los Angeles [UCLA] in 2021. "[UCLA] was always my dream school. So I figured I would either go there or not at all. It was making me really nervous about living in the States and being away from home. I think it's good for me to go because it gives me time to grow up by myself. My goal with everything is obviously the Olympics. That was something to consider, too, because I wanted to focus more on making the Olympics." (uclabruins.com, 13 Feb 2020; cambridgetimes.ca, 23 Nov 2018)

SISTER ACT
She says her older sister, 2012 Olympian Victoria Moors, continues to inspire her. "It's a hard act to follow, but Victoria has shown what's possible when you don't give up, and gives me lots of encouragement and advice. After such a successful career, she motivates me to keep the Moors legacy going." (International Gymnast magazine, December 2017)
