Born and raised in the Tillsonburg area, where I continue to live today, I have spent my entire life on the ice. I began skating at the age of six and advanced my development through the National Pairs School in Kitchener, Ontario, eventually competing at the highest levels of Canadian figure skating.

My competitive career included two Canadian National Pairs Championship titles, five years as a member of the Canadian National Team, and representing Canada in international competition. This high-performance background provided me with an exceptional understanding of skating mechanics, edge control, balance, power generation, and efficient movement on the ice.

​

For more than 28 years, I have coached athletes ranging from beginners to elite-level competitors. While my coaching career began in figure skating, my passion and expertise have evolved into developing hockey players through advanced power skating instruction.

​

Today, I work with players competing at the AAA, Junior, OHL, NCAA, professional, and NHL levels, helping them maximize their skating efficiency, speed, agility, acceleration, and overall performance. My approach combines the technical precision of elite figure skating with the demands of today's high-speed game, allowing athletes to gain a competitive edge through superior skating mechanics.

​

As both a coach and parent, I understand the pathway to high-level hockey. My daughter competed at the Canadian National Championships, and my son formally played in the OHL and now  currently plays in the NCAA. These experiences have further strengthened my commitment to athlete development and long-term success.

​

My goal is simple: to help hockey players become stronger, faster, and more efficient skaters by building elite-level skating habits that translate directly into game performance.

​

Whether working with aspiring young athletes or established junior, collegiate, and professional players, I am committed to helping every skater reach their full potential.
