I was born and raised in Anchorage, Alaska. I started playing hockey when I was 3 years old, skating on frozen lakes and ponds. My first youth hockey team was the Alaska Allstars and I continued to play competitive hockey for multiple Anchorage hockey organizations. Over the last four years, I played varsity hockey for West Anchorage High School and won the state championship this past season, while I also received an All-Conference award. Additionally, I played AA hockey with the Anchorage Northstars as an assistant captain. We won the state championship the past two years and placed 3rd at Nationals in 2022-23. At the end of the 2023-24 season, we fell short by one goal to take 2nd place in Nationals. Off the ice, I enjoy summers at the lake, golfing, skiing, and spending time with friends and family. I will be attending the U this fall to pursue a business degree.
