 Bio My journey in the world of hockey began at an early age, where I played AA in the Greater Toronto Hockey League (GTHL) from U10 to U18. I was fortunate to have played both forward and defense, developing a strong and versatile hockey IQ. Throughout my playing career, I was fortunate to have been coached by former NHL hockey players.

After my playing days, I transitioned into coaching and training, dedicating himself to developing young talent. With eight years of experience, I trained players ranging from U5 to Junior, NCAA, and NHL athletes. I started working at SK8ON, where I had the opportunity to train elite NHL players, including Steven Stamkos, John Tavares, and the Tkachuk brothers, and assist at the BioSteel Camp.

Currently, I work with XCEL Hockey Development, where I focus on advanced skill development for youth and junior athletes. Passionate about teaching the game, I strive to foster independence, leadership, and teamwork in the next generation of hockey players. I believe that coaching is more than just teaching the game of hockey, but an opportunity to help the youth what it is like to overcome adversity, collaborate with others that have similar goals and celebrate team and individual success.
