Summary

With experience as head coach of a tier 1 summer team and lead instructor of a summer development program, I have honed my leadership, instructional, and organizational skills to optimize player performance and development. Competing as both a collegiate and professional hockey player, I bring firsthand knowledge of the game's complexities and dynamics to the table. Using these experiences, I am well-equipped to support and learn from the head coach as an assistant, contributing to strategic planning and team development, while providing mentorship, and guidance to players both on and off ice ice.
