About Me

Hi, I’m Madelaine

I was born in Halifax, Canada, and I am 15 years old. My family moved to Europe when I was 2 and I spent most of my childhood in The Netherlands. I first stepped on the ice at the age of 6 during a family holiday and fell in love with skating. I started figure skating at the age of 8 when I lived in The Netherlands and eventually started training in Belgium. I was a competitive skater in Europe for 3 years before moving back to Canada.

In 2020, my family and I moved back to Canada, and I started skating in Burnaby, BC. In November 2021, while dealing with an injury I was introduced to ice dance. I discovered a new passion for my sport which led me to switch from free skate to ice dance.

I now train and compete with my ice dance partner at the junior level and am competing at the international level for the first time this 2024/2025 season.
