1. Why are you here?
I'm here to help students! If you want extra money I usually have jobs available around the Student Union, I can give you information on your Health & Dental plan, I have students available to help you fill out bursaries - not to mention the loads of useless miscellaneous information stored in my brain…

2. What was your life changing moment?
I don't know if I have had a life changing moment - although on the way to work today I was listening to Jack Johnson and he put me in really good mood…does that count?

3. What music are you currently listening to?
I listen to a little bit of everything - I'm a bit of a dork because I am really into Bon Jovi…he is my not-so-guilty pleasure…

4. What is the best piece of advice you've ever received?
Go to bed on time.

5. Who is your role model?
Betty Cooper.

6. Where in the world have you traveled?
Here and there around Canada and the US…Hopefully CUBA during March Break???

7. What was your first job?
My first job was starting up a cookie company with my best friend…we made $500.00 each and then we quit. What??? $500.00 is a lot of money to a 12-year-old.

8. What would your last meal be?
If I was planning my last meal I probably wouldn't be able to eat…I would be too nervous!!!

9. What makes you uneasy?
Not planning, sharks and snakes.
