Career

Jodoin Di Maria was born in Quebec and is of Italian descent through her father. She was a competitive skiier, gymnast and diver in her youth, before focusing exclusively on diving at the age of 16. In 2017, the Canadian gymnastics team did not call her up to a training camp, so Jodoin Di Maria contacted the coach of the Italian team and former Olympic diver Domenico Rinaldi. She opted to represent Italy after a camp there, and moved there in 2018 after getting her citizenship.[3] As of 2021, she resides in Rome. She represented Italy at the 2020 Summer Olympic Games in Tokyo.
