Beyond the Finish Line: Navigating Identity in Ottawa
Welcome to this audio documentary, where I take you on a journey through self-discovery after leaving the world of Sprint Canoe, once driven by Olympic dreams. As COVID-19 derailed my career in sport, returning to Ottawa became the catalyst of my identity quest. Join me as I navigate the shift from athlete to full-time student, unravelling the layers of who I am.
​
In this audio documentary, I will take the listener on a journey through the various identities I formed as a resident of Ottawa. From national team athlete to student and everything in between, we visited some of the spaces that defined those periods of my life.
​
From finding myself in university to the uncertainties of post-graduation, this narrative weaves through twists and turns. It's a tale of finding oneself when life keeps changing, emphasizing that the journey holds more value than a fixed identity.
