“I came to Northwood two years ago to try to balance my academics with my sport. I do alpine ski racing for NYSEF and Northwood.
“I’m from Quebec, Canada, and my first language is French. Before coming to Northwood, I was already bilingual, which helped with my transition. For some classes, it was still hard, though.
“My favorite thing about Northwood, besides my friends, is the fires outside and in the living room. Also, playing cards in the living room. I love hanging out with my friends, going into town, and playing golf. Also, Spikeball in the Fall and Spring is one of my favorite things.
“We have one last race this season. It is called The Springs, and it’s gonna be pretty fun. It is in Quebec, and then it’s gonna be after spring break, and then the season’s over. Unfortunately, I’m missing the Alumni race because it’s over break.
“For next year, I just got accepted to Babson, which is right outside Boston, so I might just go there. If I do, I will be on the D1 ski team there.
“I mean, it’s Babson. It is an amazing, busy school, and that’s what I want to do.
“Many people don’t know, but I love cooking, and I’m actually really good at tennis.
“Pineapple kind of belongs on pizza. Only if it’s the right pizza does it; if it’s good, then it belongs.
“ For next year’s Seniors, enjoy every moment, because everything goes by really fast. Also, do your college essay during the summer because you will have a lot of schoolwork in the fall, and it’s hard to do your essays at the same time.”
