I have been a part of the Grandview skating club since I was 6 years old, and I still love being here as much as I did when I was younger. The skating club is not just a club to me, they are like my second family and the rink is like my second home. Everywhere I look I am constantly surrounded by a positive and encouraging atmosphere from the skater and the other coaches. 

My goal as a coach is to make sure that I am a role model for the other skaters to look up to. As a skater, I still look up to my fellow coaches and I still aspire to be like them and I hope to share my love and knowledge of skating with other skaters. We have such a fun and spirited atmosphere at the club and I hope that it never dies out, I want the club to keep up that same fun-loving spirit that it has had for so many years. 

“I have witnessed many skaters who seem to really fall in love with the sport like I have and it brings me joy to see other skaters experiencing that same joy that I have when I come to the rink.”
