About:

I began coaching in 2017 and have had the privilege of working with skaters of all ages and skill levels. I work with Pre-Canskate to Adult and Figure Skating to Power Skating for hockey players. As a competitive figure skater for 10 years, including competing at the Junior level, I bring firsthand experience and a strong technical foundation to my coaching.

I strive to create a fun, positive, and encouraging environment where skaters feel confident, motivated, and excited to learn, while still placing a strong focus on proper technique and skill development. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology, a Diploma in Health and Fitness Promotion, and a Pilates Mat Certification. I have a genuine passion for coaching and love helping each skater build confidence, develop their skills, and reach their goals.
