BUILT ON EXPERIENECE.
FOCUSED ON EXCELLENCE.

I started YTZ Elite Hockey with a simple goal: to share my experience and passion for hockey while helping the next generation of players and goalies develop their skills, confidence, and love for the game.

I grew up playing hockey in small-town Alberta, Canada, and I know firsthand where hard work, determination, and a passion for the game can take you. My hockey journey gave me the opportunity to become an NCAA Division I National Champion and continue on to a professional career that included playing in the NHL, AHL, and Europe, as well as winning a Kelly Cup Championship in the ECHL.

Now, I have the opportunity to take what I learned throughout my career and pass it along to the players and goalies I work with. At YTZ Elite Hockey, I offer private lessons, small-group training, player and goalie development, and specialized clinics for athletes of all ages and ability levels. My focus is on individual attention, quality repetitions, and creating a positive environment where athletes enjoy coming to the rink and putting in the work to get better.

Training takes place in our dedicated synthetic ice training space on the second floor of Ellenton Ice & Sports Complex, where we can slow things down, focus on the details, and get a lot of quality repetitions in a short amount of time.

For me, YTZ Elite Hockey is about more than developing better hockey players. I want the athletes I work with to build confidence, enjoy the process, work hard, and develop a love for the game that stays with them.
