I worked with my Mental Performance Consultant for over 5 years, and during this time she has taught me mental skills to reduce my anxiety level when I competed and helped me boost my confidence level. Before I started working with a MPC my boccia career was going down, but with the help of my MPC I was able to pick things up and represent Canada at the 2012 London Paralympic Games! After achieving numerous world class performances, going to several Paralympic Games, and doing all that I can do in my sport, recently I retired from boccia and now take into coaching my athletes the lessons I learned through my personal mental skills training; it's been a full circle.
