Coaching Philosophy: 
I believe that 50% of getting something done is showing up and what you do once you’ve arrived determines the result. My primary goal is to help skaters become leaders of their own education. With every student I take into account the individuals physical and emotional safety, their skating “life skill” development, their unique personality and learning style, and encourage a critical understanding of strengths, limitations, motivations and needs through self-awareness. For me, teaching is a process of learning from students, colleagues and parents. I aim to bring a positive attitude, open mind and high expectations for my students into the rink every day. I believe I owe it to my students to bring warmth and consistency and inspire those same traits in my students. I am constantly acquiring new certifications and fresh skills to share with the skaters I teach.
