Other Info:

Despite my busy schedule, I try to give back to the soccer community through volunteer soccer refereeing. I also volunteer as an assistant coach for the Special Olympics Nova Scotia soccer team, which is a mix of youth and adults. I volunteer with Colchester Multi-sport in coaching youth soccer players. Voluntarily ran and coached for the CC Riders multisport program.

Meanwhile, at the golf course, I try to share my knowledge and love for the game by running a Little Swingers program at the Truro Golf Club. This program introduces kids to the game and teaches basic etiquette, rules and swinging tips to create the fun environment that made me fall in love with the game at that age.

Programs I’m involved with at school:

• I am a reading buddy for the special needs ( life skills) students
• I help run the Life Skills intramurals program
• Environmental club
• Chess club
• Varsity Golf
• Varsity Soccer
