I was born and raised in Vancouver, and am a long time fan of the Canucks. I came across Bleacher Report in October of 2011, and applied as a writer. On February 13, 2012, I was accepted as a Featured Columnist, specializing in NHL and the Vancouver Canucks. As time goes on, I hope to become a columnist for PGA and MMA as well.

I'm currently completing a BBA in Marketing Communications in Victoria, BC, and hold a degree in Business Management and Professional Golf Management. When I complete my studies, I will either look for work in sports journalism or sports marketing, and if that fails I may look into continuing education.
