Biography<\/strong><\/p>\n

After high school, I planned to enroll in CEGEP, but Covid changed learning in person, to online courses. That’s when I realized I didn\u2019t want to work behind a desk. I enrolled in a machining technique program at the \u00c9cole des m\u00e9tiers de l’a\u00e9rospatiale de Montr\u00e9al (\u00c9MAM), where I could learn hands-on. I loved my experience! The job of machinist is a good fit for me. I see myself continuing my training in order to obtain my vocational diploma in welding.<\/p>\n

Representing Canada at the WorldSkills Competition is a privilege. I’ll need to continue to work on developing my skills, to be successful at WorldSkills Lyon 2024.<\/p>\n

Interesting fact<\/strong>
\nIn 2015, I competed at the Jeux du Qu\u00e9bec in archery, and in 2016 my MEKANO robotics team from Lucien-Pag\u00e9 high school qualified for the FIRST Robotics WorldSkills Competition, held in St. Louis, Missouri. So, when \u00c9MAM approached me to take part in a skills competition, I immediately accepted.<\/p>\n

Skills for Success<\/strong>
\nDuring my training and during the competition, my numeracy skills and my ability to adapt have helped me enormously. I had to be innovative to get around certain difficulties. I also had to anticipate the result of each action while visualizing the final product.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
