Siobhan Heekin-Canedy Explained

Siobhan Heekin-Canedy (born July 31, 1991) is an American-Ukrainian former ice dancer who competed internationally for Ukraine. With Dmitri Dun, she is a three-time Ukrainian national champion and placed as high as 14th at the World Championships.

Personal life

Heekin-Canedy became a Ukrainian citizen two months before the 2014 Winter Olympics.

Career

Due to the scarcity of males in U.S. figure skating, Heekin-Canedy's coach arranged a partnership with a Ukrainian. Heekin-Canedy began competing for Ukraine with Dmitri Zyzak in 2007. After their split, she competed with Alexander Shakalov from 2009 to 2011. They were coached by Galit Chait and Natalia Dubova. Shakalov retired after the 2011 World Championships.

In mid-2011, Heekin-Canedy teamed up with Dmitri Dun. In their first season together, they won the Ukrainian national title and placed 15th at both the 2012 European Championships and 2012 World Championships.

In the 2012–13 season, Heekin-Canedy and Dun finished 12th at the 2013 European Championships and 14th at the 2013 World Championships. Their Worlds placement gave Ukraine a spot in the ice dancing event at the 2014 Winter Olympics.

Heekin-Canedy and Dun retired from competition in March 2014.
