BIO: I was raised in a small Northern Ontario mining community where most kids my age were boys. This meant quickly adapting to take on street sports and rugged behavior to fit in. I gladly picked up a baseball glove and a hockey stick to prove my prowess. This led to my proficiency as a multi sport athlete. I played Club Basketball, Volleyball and Soccer which eventually granted me an athletic scholarship at Kansas Missouri State. I knew at a young age that I liked speed and extreme action type sports which brought me to BMX & mountain biking, barefoot water skiing, climbing and kite / wake / snow / boarding. In 2011 I suffered extreme trauma to my right leg as a result of a car accident. I was told I wouldn’t be able to do most, if not all sports I’d grown to love. So, I decided to find a way to change that perception. I began biking more frequently as the strength training without the weight impact helped rehab my leg. As a result I started spending more time on the saddle and now excel at Mountain / Cross and Road Cycling. Achievements / Goals:
