“Increasingly we are working with sport executives, national team athletes and high performance coaches who are interested in self-development to enhance their leadership capacity.

“They say hindsight is 20/20, and it’s clearer than ever just how much sport has contributed to my life. I have learned how to win, how to fail with my chin up, how to discover my strengths and weaknesses, and how to work alongside people who were different from me. Working with the Sport Law & Strategy Group is a dream come true as I get to serve and strengthen the community that served me. This is far more than just advancing my career … this is about living my life’s purpose,” shared Rosanna.

Rosanna was born and raised in Montreal, did an undergrad in Biology and Music in Los Angeles and won various international medals on the world stage with Team Canada. After retiring from her career as a national team athlete, she became certified in six different psychometric assessments: StrengthsFinder, Myers-Briggs, TotalSDI, Birkman, STRONG, and NOVA Profile.

She obtained her coach certification with the ICF (ACC) at Concordia University. For the past five years, she has been working with various organizations and individuals throughout the U.S. and Canada. Rosanna is a TEDx speaker and a member of the Forbes Coaches Council.
