Ashley Brown is hoping to change the world — one smell at a time.  Born and raised in Elnora, a village about 70 km southeast of Red Deer, Brown, 17, never thought she’d be part of a team working on a project that could help improve rehabilitation, education, research and even gaming. It’s called Smell-O-Vision, and it’s a virtual reality computer program — which Brown built herself — that uses scents to make the virtual reality experience more realistic.
