Before I started to play hockey, I speed skated for a local inline team right down the road from my house. Growing up, I knew nothing about the game, but it always excited me. I started late at 10 years old, but i understood it and picked it up quickly. Ever since then, I absolutely fell in love with the game. On a weekly basis, I am on the ice and in the gym around 5-6 times a week. I love to work hard, and my goal is to always work hard enough to compete at the next level.
