Meredith Briggs, Vancouver Island Site
Meredith was a simple country girl (born and raised in Vancouver), you might say a cockeyed optimist, who got herself mixed up in the high-stakes game of world diplomacy and international intrigue. One day while walking along the Vancouver Seawall she recalls – “the sea was angry that day my friends, like an old man […]
Sean Patrick, Vancouver Island Site
Seany P is the more muscular, and some might say shorter, half of the Sham-Wow pair. Standing a full 5ft 7inches tall, what he lacks in height he makes up for in spunk and his ability to bench press Donovan. Although technically another Alberta boy, having grown up in the frozen tundra of Edmonton, he […]
Sam Brophy, Vancouver Island Site
Drafted first round into the Vancouver Island Spikeball League, Sam is another born and bred Island boy, if you couldn’t tell from his luscious facial hair and permanent tan. Sam has five, yes FIVE sisters. Somehow, he survived his early years of having his hair done in braids and moving between urban Victoria and a […]
Emily Lostchuck, Fraser Site
Hailing from the end of a loooong dirt road in rural Ontario, Emily spent her youth galloping through open meadows on horseback and sailing off into glowing eastern sunsets. She expanded her horizons by winter, hockey stick in hand, rocking her opponents into the boards on just about every rink in the province and earning […]
Chris Doyle-Kelly, Fraser Site
Chris grew up in Montreal, Irish-blooded and English-speaking. He later drifted to southwestern Ontario for an undergrad in Kinesiology at Western, an experience which, to this day, he remembers almost nothing about. Unsurprisingly, his lacklustre academic performance left him rejected from his first adult job application: collecting parking-lot shopping carts. His downward trajectory took him […]
Seb Przech, Fraser Site
Somehow not ashamed to admit that he came from Onterrible, or that he cheers for the Leafs, Seb grew up in Etobicoke, where he spent the majority of his childhood avoiding getting his drivers license and competing in Olympic-level archery. Seb then spent a couple years as a carpenters apprentice which is where he fell […]
Ateshia York, Fraser Site
Ateshia likes exploring and taking the scenic route and she held true to that in her journey to becoming an EM resident. Born and raised in rural BC, Ateshia was homeschooled for the majority of her primary and secondary education. She came to Vancouver to celebrate Y2k and found that city life was way more […]
Brendan Arnold, Fraser Site
Brendan was born in rainy Vancouver, BC, and after a brief stint in New Zealand grew up in Campbell River on Vancouver Island. He grew up playing soccer and the violin while making Mount Washington home during the winters where he was a member of the freestyle ski club. Uvic became his new home during […]
Michelle Chuang, Fraser Site
Michelle was born and raised in Vancouver, where she spent much of her youth playing the piano and countless video games. After briefly entertaining the idea of being a firefighter—a dream quickly shattered when she learned how much firefighting gear weighs—she started an undergrad at UBC with absolutely zero idea what she wanted to do. […]
Adrianna Rowe, Fraser Site
Adrianna was born in the metropolis of Newmarket, Ontario. She grew up mastering paint-by-number canvases, playing team sports and never believing in the Leafs. Her enthusiasm for physiology and pharmacology led her to Western University, where she played for Western’s ultimate frisbee team and somehow completed her bachelor’s degree too. Eager to flee Ontario, she […]
