Melissa Humana-
Paredes
Team Canada, Beach Volleyball
Melissa,
You make me the proudest Dad. Create poetry in motion.
Love, Dad.
Teammates Melissa and Brandie are ready to hit the sandy volleyball courts in Paris as they play in their first Olympic Games as a duo.
Hobbies: “I love going to concerts. And if I can ever make it work, where I'm overseas at a tournament and we have some time, I'll try and find little local concerts to go to.”
Role models: “My parents. I credit them for showing me what it means to be a true human – managing emotions, and how to take what life throws at you.”
Best advice: “My dad has always encouraged me to create ‘poetry in motion’. I want people to see the joy I have in me, and see the dance I do, all to inspire and excite people to invest in sport and to support female athletes.”
Favourite food: “Pizza, like a massive pizza. The crust is very important. I get very upset when I see people not eating the crust.”
Brandie
Wilkerson
Team Canada, Beach Volleyball
Brandie,
Que sera sera.
From, your brother Travis.
Hobbies: “I have always had a love for art and fashion, so I try to go to events, museums, and stay connected to my creativity.”
Role models: “I have an incredible group of women in my life like my mother, sister, and best friends that teach me daily what it’s like to live life fully and successfully.”
Best advice: “I once read, ‘You have everything you need, you’re simply on the path to discovering it.’ And that has stayed with me in the pursuit of my goals as it’s kept me a student of the game and feeling truly confident and capable of accomplishing anything.”
Favourite food: “Pre-competition favourites include beets, yogurt, bread and honey, grilled veggies, rice dishes, dried fruit, and bars. For post-competition, I like a hearty salad, pizza, granola, pasta, fresh cut fruit.”
