Hockey has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, but my passion for roller hockey began at 15 when I first stepped onto the rink in Edmonton, Alberta. I quickly fell in love with the game and transitioned to roller full-time, setting the stage for an incredible journey in the sport.

After competing in local events and AAU tournaments, I earned a scholarship to Bethel University, where I played for five years. I then continued my career at Lindenwood University, pursuing a master’s degree while competing during the lockdown years.
My dedication to the game led me to play at the highest levels, including TORHS, NARCH, and State Wars Pro events, and proudly representing Team Canada at multiple World Championships and the World Games. In 2021, I signed a professional contract to play in the Spanish Elite League, where I have competed ever since.
In the 2023/24 season, I joined Valladolid, further expanding my role in the sport by launching my goaltending coaching career. Since then, I have worked with goalies worldwide, running camps, training programs, and offering remote coaching to help develop the next generation of goaltenders.
My passion lies in growing the sport of roller hockey, continuing to develop as a goaltender, and creating valuable resources for roller hockey goalies. I aim to elevate the position and the game itself to the same recognition and prestige that ice hockey enjoys.
