Hobbies and Interests
I have a love for officiating hockey. It's something that I am really good at and want to continue to pursue a career in. My goal is to try and work high level leagues like the WHL and NHL., I also have a love for rugby. It is why I am in Duncan, my mother and I move to Duncan from Saskatchewan just so I could attend the MacDowell Rugby Academy. I get to train full time all school year, I will continue to pursue rugby during my time at University.
