“I am from Akwesasne, New York, about an hour away from Northwood. It is right on the border of New York and Ontario. Before I came here, I played for a team in Ontario called the Hawkesbury Hawks.
“My favorite artist depends on how I am feeling in the day, but of everyone, it has to be Post Malone.
“Definitely my favorite place to eat in town is Soulshine. For home games, my pregame routine is usually walk into town and go there.
“I chose Northwood because it was the first prep school I visited, and I fell in love with it when I toured. I then got to skate with the prep team, and after my skate, Coach Mallaro told me I had a spot on the team for the next year, so it was a straightforward decision.
“My favorite part about Northwood is all the different things you get to experience, like LEAP, which you can only experience here. As well as all the people you meet and how close you become to them.
“My best memory has to be all the team dinners and bus rides with my teammates. They are unforgettable experiences that have given me the best memories that will last the rest of my life.
“My plans after Northwood are to play junior hockey for two years. I then want to go to college and pursue a degree in business.
“The best advice for anyone coming here is to enjoy whatever happens here and don’t take anything for granted. My three years have flown by, and I wish I could experience it all over again.”
