EARLY DAYS
She spent much of her childhood in Barbados before returning to Canada as a teenager. "As a young athlete in Barbados, it was exciting. When you have a sports day, people bring out drums and horns and there's music playing and everyone is cheering and having fun. Being raised in such a beautiful country and seeing my mum and dad's culture, it was a very special time in my life. When I moved to Canada in 2008, it was a big adjustment. I didn't want to leave Barbados. Starting a new life in Toronto was different. Going to school was harder because our curriculum was different in Barbados. I was also the new kid and there were a lot of people who picked on me because they said I didn't speak proper English or they couldn't understand me because of my accent. It was kind of rough, but it was okay because I had sports to guide me." (olympic.ca, 25 Feb 2020)
