Getting to Know...Stephanie Cameron

X-Women soccer midfielder Stephanie Cameron is the latest athlete featured in our Getting to Know your X-Women and X-Men series throughout the summer. Stephanie recently completed his third year with the X-Women and is a Human Nutrition student from Calgary, Alta.

What brought you to StFX?
I always knew I would choose a university in the Maritimes, and when I came across X as an option it just made sense! Together, the Human Nutrition program, the unbelievable athletics program, and the sense of community at StFX were exactly what I needed for the best possible student-athlete experience.

What has been your best moment in a StFX uniform so far?
My best moment in a StFX uniform was last season, my third year, when we beat CBU 4-1 on our home turf. That being the first time StFX has beat CBU in years, I can't even explain the excitement and adrenaline in the locker room after we won... There really is no other feeling like it.

One thing I cannot live without is…?
I wish I could say soccer, but coffee seemed to come to mind first (Being a student will do that to you).

If I could have super-hero powers I would…?
Be able to turn into a giant on command.

My biggest pet peeve is…? 
When the entire computer lab is empty except for you and one other person and that one person decides to sit directly beside you. (Same thing with bathroom stalls and treadmills, etc.)

My dream vacation destination is…?
Fiji! After watching The Truman Show for the hundredth time on TV I decided that Fiji is probably worth the trip.

My dream job is…?
Being a dietitian/cook and opening up my own private clinic with family cooking classes. 

Tell us one thing that fans may not know about you?
When I'm not playing soccer or doing school work, I'm pretty much always knitting. And when I say always I am definitely not exaggerating.
