Hello, it’s me!
If you’ve made it here you might already know a little bit about me, but if not I’ll fill you in on the basics. My name is Shanice Marcelle, I’m 28 years old. Born in Toronto, raised in Victoria. I’m now a nomad of sorts living anywhere from Victoria/Toronto/Winnipeg to somewhere in Europe. I love to draw and paint, I’m a self certified pinterest chef, I binge watch horrible tv shows, I love the feeling of a good sweat/hate it all at the same time, but most importantly to me I love my peoples, and I’m inspired by the connections I’ve been able to make through sport.
Which is most likely the reason why you are here and how you may know of me. I am a professional volleyball player, as well as a member of Team Canada, and one of the select few who have done so on both the sand and indoors at the senior level. There is no greater feeling than representing our country against the worlds best, and I’m so honoured and humbled to play for the red and white.
I'm passionate about sharing my story - the good, the bad, the ugly and the lessons that I’ve learnt along the way.
I'm hopeful that my story of an Olympic dream isn't over.
And I aspire to inspire all of you.
I hope to provide a space where those who are interested in embarking on a similar journey can gain insight, and maybe learn from my mistakes. Hopefully, I can encourage you find your voice, and platform to share your story too.
I hope you stay a while.
Passion.Perseverance.Persistance.
Let’s get it.
