Coach’s Philosophy

My focus is to get to know, develop, and train well rounded skaters. Growing up in this sport taught me so much, and I hope to pass down the skating skills, values, and life skills that I learned, to developing skaters. I look to nurture the joy that young athletes have for the sport, while motivating and instilling a confidence that will allow them to succeed.
