How did you start to play ice hockey?
I grew up watching the Mighty Ducks movies and through those films I started playing Inline Hockey at the age of 7. I loved the game and eventually gave Ice Hockey a shot at the age of 10 and haven’t looked back since.
Who are your Ice Hockey influences/role models and why?
Steve Yzerman and Sidney Crosby. Their smart plays are amazing to watch.
Do you have any techniques/skills that enable you to perform better on the ice?
My quick feet, which give me a great advantage when it comes to cornering and getting out of tight situations.
What do you do besides Ice Hockey in your spare time?
I just like to kick back with the mates and when I can, go to the gym.
How did you hear about Perth Thunder and what made you want to play for them?
It’s been a build up for several years in the WA hockey world. Seeing as I was only 15 when it started it was something to strive for.
Which AIHL team do you think has the most chance of winning the Goodall Cup in 2013 (besides Thunder)?
Definitely Melbourne Ice.
