How did you get started in racing?
My brother was doing race and he initiated me. He did race before I was born, so my family and I were always going to his races. These reasons showed me that I might have an interest in this sport.
As a little girl, did you ever expect to be this deep into a sport like motocross?
Yes, because I always put effort on the things I like.
Do you think motocross is harder for a female to compete in?
No, it depends on their performance.
Who is your favourite rider and why?
I don’t have a favourite racer, but I admired the talent of every racer.
Is there one lady racer out there that you think has paved the way for other girls to be successful in the sport?
Yes, Ashley Fiolek because she is deaf and she still has skills.
What Canadian Pro do you look up to and why?
Kaven Benoit because he put a lot of effort to get where he is today.
What is your favourite track and why?
I don’t have a favourite track but I like to go to Deschambault because the conditions are always excellent every time I go.

Who is your hero?
I don’t have a hero.
What are your goals for this season?
I would like to have better results.
What are your biggest accomplishments?
Last year when I finished first in Women B.
What is your favourite part about going to the races?
Spending time with my family and I like the feeling that brings me the beginning of the race.
What do you like to do when you aren’t racing?
I like to spend time with my friends and do activities with them.

Is it important to have a motocross racer as a boyfriend/partner, or just a bonus?
It’s a bonus, but it’s nice to share the same passion.
If you ever have children, will they be motocross racers?
I’d like them to practice this sport but I’ll leave them the choice.
Who do you want to thank?
I would like to thank my family, Mécanique S.B and Entretien Coin.
