How old will you be as of August 4, 2024? 17

Where do you live? Ottawa, Ontario

What is your First language? English

What’s your dream? My dream is to become a high school teacher while being able to keep practicing my passion for music.

Name a francophone event that you particularly liked and tell us why. My favorite francophone moment was when I traveled to France and was able to communicate sufficiently with all the locals with very little difficulty. In particular, there was a conversation in a pizza shop. The guy who was the store owner told me to keep up my work with French because he was astonished that someone my age knew two languages.

Why you can’t wait to take part in the FNJA? I can't wait to be able to have a fun week with other students who share my passion for French.
