Jana Vizina is in her first year of the horticulture technician program. She says: "I am a pretty optimistic person who loves doing pretty much everything, from being outside, traveling, drawing, dancing, cooking ... etc ... Trust me, the list goes on, and as a person who is afraid of heights, I love going on airplanes and I would love to go skydiving!"

1. Why are you here?
Well, to make a long story short, my high school teacher recommended me to take the horticulture technician program because it is indeed the best one around.

2. What was your life changing moment?
The biggest event that has changed my life was when my father died before grade 12 graduation.

3. What music are you currently listening to?
I listen to everything from pop, dance, metal, alternative, rock, reggaeton, classical (etc.)....it really depends on my mood. While working out, anything fast paced to keep me going!

4. What is the best piece of advice you've ever received?
"Never give up" and "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the HEART."

5. Who is your role model?
Honestly, I would have to say my mother. She immigrated her from the Czech Republic with my father and two kids when the communism had started, learned the language and is now widowed. There is nothing in the world I would not do for her.

6. Where in the world have you traveled?
I've been to visit my grandparents quite a few times in the Czech Republic and went on a road trip with my grandparents to Croatia. With school, I went to Ottawa, Quebec and France through my French Immersion classes.

7. What was your first job?
Besides helping my dad with his custom woodworking business, my first real job was at Riverside Fish and Chips where I made fried food and scooped ice cream.

8. What would your last meal be?
My last meal would have to be a toss up between any kind of pasta or watermelon ... mmmmm ... watermelon. 9. What makes you uneasy?
Heights and creepy people in dark alleys.

10. What is your passion?
My two favourite things are travelling and being outdoors.
