After graduation I started working in the automotive industry for transtar industries for 25 yrs and to this day with Monster Transmission/Thor convertors for the past 7 yrs. At 5 yrs old I was playing hockey in the streets with my friends. When hockey started to emerge in the area I played for the Glassport Express, then for the Penn Hills dek hockey organization to go on to win the PA State Champions. I was chosen by Penn Hills Centurians, participating in the US Nationals, Can Ams in Leominster, Mass, Mid-West Regionals. On to Canada, participating in the Patrick Roy Cup, Quebec City, Montreal Mapleleaf Cup, Ontario and Niagra falls championships. I also played for the Pgh Wizards and played at Bills Dek hockey which became my home. Throughout this time I played ice hockey when it became available and had the opportunity of a lifetime to skate with The Pittsburgh Penguins! I had then met Joe Mullen then played for him in the NHGL Roller Tournament and won it. In the meantime I raced quads in the GNCC & American Woods championship series. I then suddenly got a call to participate in the 2014 World Ball Hockey Championship in Tampa, Fl for The District of Columbia, in which I got Player of the Game and MVP twice.

At this time I moved to Florida and quickly started over. I found my hockey team quickly playing at The All-Sports Arena, which is my teammates till this day. I received another call in 2018 to play for the Old Glory Hockey Club to participate in the World Champions in Hamilton Bermuda. After that I put myself back on the ice which is my main focus, playing 3 nights a week and tournaments. I then got a call from my ball hockey teammates to play for the NBHL The Tampa Bay Thunder. I’m looking forward for this next challenge playing in the NBHL. #31 #BEAST
