Who is Team Starfish?
INTRODUCING Emily and Darling
Hi there. My name is Emily Trepanier. Originally from Ontario, Canada, I am living in BC Canada. I am a blind snowboarder working towards competing at the Winter Paralympics as one of the first. I’ve been snowboarding for 11 years and racing for 7 years.
Darling, who is my seeing eye guide dog comes along on my adventures whererever i go. She is my second guide dog and we have been a team for 3 years. My first guide dog Olivia worked for 9 years and is happily retired and living with my mom, step dad, their dog and cat.
When not training, I am a full time Educational Assistant at an elementary school here in BC. I also love hanging out with my family and friends and exploring and going on different adventures.
