The small-ish 5’9″ 165 lbs. forward is coming off a college career low goal and 9 assists in 22 NCAA Division3 games, but 3 times was a 20+ point scorer for his 1st school, Salve Regina University Seahawks.

He started his junior hockey with tier 3 Walpole Express after graduating Cushing Academy and lit up with 41 points in 40 EHL games, then was selected in the NAHL draft and played the next frame for New Jersey Junior Titans.

The 26-year old, Winthrop, MA native should light up where he is headed and may even get a promotion to a higher level club.

He has a very successful first run in Italy’s tier 2 league (12 goals, 19 assists in 20 games) and will return, but signs with rivals Feltre for 2023/2024.

25 assists ties a mark twice set in college play and 17 goals goes back to his 2nd junior season for that total, so he is scoring and will take that to a 3rd Italy2 team for 2024/2025, HC Eppan Pirates, maybe in hopes of winning a championship.

He blows up scoring with 20 goals and 35 assists in 32 games, then adds another 4 in 4 playoff matchups and will return for 2025/2026 in a Pirates‘ jersey.

The 27-year old from Los Angeles, CA seems to be pulling his game together at the perfect time.

He actually left his 2nd NAHL season to head to college.

In 40 games, he scores a new best 5 goals and will take that to a contract with the new to the league, Tahoe Knight Monsters for 2024/2025.

He records 2 assists in 9 games with a +3 rating, but gets himself dished to Indy Fuel.

In 16 games, he has 1 goal and 2 assists with a +1 rating, but gets himself dealt again, this time to Fort Wayne Komets.

For 2025/2026, he decides to head down to sign with Knoxville Ice Bears and we are not sure if his age will cause him to not get loaned up, as quickly for good play.

He does go up to the Thunder and in 11 ECHL games scoring 4 assists, he is traded to South Carolina Stingrays for cash considerations and should incorporate into their lineup well.

Continuing to bounce, he ends up with Maine Mariners, where he does his best, but is waived again to join his 4th team of the season, Reading Royals, as playoff time rolls in.

He would bounce around 4 teams and that easily made him decide to head of to Ligue Magnus for 2026/2027 and he signs with Les Jokers Cergy-Pointoise.

This gained notice of St. Cloud State University Huskies, who got him to commit for the upcoming year.

The 6’3″ 21-year old will definitely be put to the test in the NCHC, but is pretty big, so may find his space.

After a graduate frame, he signs a 1st pro contract with Utah Grizzles and gets 2 ECHL goals and 1 assists with a +1 rating in 11 games.
