Life Goals and Aspirations with Olympic Medalist Alyson Dudek

Some athletes, like Alyson Dudek, think and dream much bigger and go after alternate goals in tandem with achieving Olympic glory.

After winning the 500-meter event and finishing second in short track speed skating at the Olympic qualifier in 2009, Dudek and her teammates won the Bronze medal in the 3,000 metre relay, Vancouver 2010.

But Dudek admits, that her life purpose is much bigger. Her goal is to reinforce, “that it’s never big, to make anyone feel small. I want this message to resonate; that to be nice, is cool.”

Dudek hopes that school visits, community appearances and corporate partnerships will help to enhance the visibility of her anti-bullying message.

“If I can teach one child, then I can made a difference,” she says. As an athlete, Dudek has made her mark, but as a human being she wants to leave this world a better place than she has found it.
