About

I hold a Bachelor of Health & Physical Education (Sport and Recreation Management). I bring strong communication skills and a genuine passion for growing the game of hockey. I am a motivated and reliable individual with hands-on experience in hockey event operations and customer-facing roles. I have experience setting up and running events, working independently, and creating positive experiences for participants. I’ve also proven my ability to work cross-functionally with team members both in-office to coordinate events and in the field to deliver seamless activations.
