Meryeta started snowboard lessons at the age of 12 but the love and passion for it was not immediate; it took nearly a full season of constant training sessions for the love to spark. In her first year Meryeta chose to strictly ride during the night hours, as the hills were much more quiet and it gave her the opportunity to master her craft. Today, Meryeta is a professional snowboarder and Olympian representing Canada, specializing in snowboard cross, and most recently was a double bronze medalist at the Beijing 2022 Olympics. Off the hills, Meryeta has a deep rooted passion for fitness, fashion, travelling, and beauty and cosmetics.
