Personal Statement
My goals are to play highest level hockey based on skill and drive . I'm a strong candidate because I have continued to show strong improvement each year by focusing on the feedback of the coaches at the end of each year. I encourage my teammates to do their best by talking with them and leading by example. I am a 2 way player because I played forward for 7 years and shifted over to defense, joinIng the rush at the right time without hurting my team reflects my hockey IQ, I have been told my skating skills is one of my assets. Also,, I am a reliable player, playing over 65 games per season the last 2 years.
I have a strong catholic school education, reflecting my focus on school I have not missed headmaster list or honor roll in my 2 years in Boston. In North Carolina, my freshman year, I ranked 5th out of 560 students. I have been training since I was 11 at a gym for speed, agility and weights to continue to improve my performance on the ice.
Mentally I stay focused on the game. I take practice and games seriously. My motto is practice like you play and focus on the next shift.
Even though defense is my main position, some of the videos show me playing forward. I began playing defense in 2019.
One would not be taking a risk, once you see my play. For this summer I will dedicate myself to get stronger and improve my techniques on the blue line and learn from ex NHL defenders in the summer of 2023.
