What are your most memorable athletic achievements?
My most memorable athletic achievements are winning the OBA Baseball Championship with my team and winning the District Cross Country meet with my school in St. Mary's.

Outside of hockey what are you most passionate about?
When the weather gets warmer, I enjoy being outside on the golf course with my family and friends. I also enjoy working out at CrossFit Stratford. My goal this season is to continue getting stronger and faster to help give me an edge on the ice against my opponents.

How would you describe yourself as a player?
I believe my strongest qualities as a player are my playmaking ability, vision, and work ethic. I am known by my teammates as a pass-first guy that is also dependable defensively. My strong skating ability and edgework allow me to create offensive opportunities and open up passing lanes. No matter how the game is going I try and maintain a positive mindset and work as hard as I can for my teammates.

What are your academic aspirations and accomplishments?
This year I am in Grade 10 and strive to continue to be an honour roll student. I have not yet decided what field to pursue but I am keeping all avenues open to find something that I am passionate about. If I could continue to play sports while getting my education paid for that would be my goal.

What is something about you that most people would not know?
Although I live in Ontario now I was not born in this province. I was born in Calgary, Alberta, and later moved to St. Mary's, Ontario with my family. We are a hockey family and my brother Nate also plays for the Huron Perth Lakers 07' team.
