As an above knee amputee, I grew up on a prosthesis. I took on physical activities that people told me were “impossible for someone like you”. I rode horses in a therapeutic riding program. I went from student to riding instructor as a teen.

I played street hockey with friends. When I saw a need for something local, I began a roller hockey league in my town when I was only 15 years old.

I played roller hockey as a goalie for many years. Making the transition from roller hockey skates to ice hockey skates was a goal I was determined to check off my list. As a teen, I began my journey playing ice hockey as a goalie. At the time, there were 0 options for me to join adaptive sports organizations. I played my entire life of hockey with “able bodied” hockey players.

My background in public speaking dates back to 1996 when I began my journey as a presenter with various diversity/disability awareness organizations. Since then, I have presented in front of a collective audience well over thousands of people. While doing my undergrad at Quinnipiac University, I studied to be an Occupational Therapist for the first year and half of my time there. I participated in every leadership event/training I could during my 4 years. 

My training and certifications from Cornell University in communications,leadership, and business development guarantee that you will be working with a well spoken and punctual professional. My role in the health science/amputee community is one of extreme pride backed by a lifetime of experience.

Today, in 2026….after many years away from the game of hockey, I’m returning to the ice as a goalie.

My back story is one of a life as an amputee learning ways to overcome other people’s view of what is possible. I recall a poster of a lower limb amputee at Hanger Clinic years ago with the tag line “I’M POSSIBLE”. That’s where my offerings to the amputee community begin….showing others they too ARE POSSIBLE.
