Sara: We know you are a professional figure skater. What are 3 qualities you think are important to have as an athlete?

Danielle: Three qualities that I find important to have as an athlete are time management, commitment and the ability to focus with a positive mentality. 

Sara: You also coach little kids figure skating at Connaught Club. What is one thing you learn or take away from coaching?

Danielle: After working with children for many years I have learnt how to break tasks down into simpler steps so that kids can learn them as well. 

Sara:  Most people might say it is tough managing school, professional training and a part-time job. How do you do it all?

Danielle: The way I manage to do all of these tasks at the same time is being organized and sticking to a very rigid schedule, I also get a lot of help from my parents, siblings and friends.
