My journey began on the ice, chasing a lifelong dream to play in the NHL. The early mornings, grueling workouts, and relentless pursuit of excellence taught me invaluable lessons in discipline, perseverance, and resilience—qualities that have become the cornerstone of who I am today. When injuries abruptly ended my hockey career, I found new purpose by applying those same principles off the rink, ultimately leading to a more balanced, rewarding, and purposeful life.

As a father, I faced a new kind of battle: raising a child amidst the overwhelming presence of processed foods and added sugars. Watching firsthand how these harmful substances impacted my son’s health and well-being was a turning point for me. My extensive background in the health and fitness industry, combined with my personal experiences as a parent, fueled the creation of ‘Food Wars.’ This initiative is a passionate mission to empower parents and caregivers to protect children from the harmful effects of processed foods and sugar, offering practical guidance and support to build healthier futures for our families.

These experiences also inspired me to pursue writing, sharing the valuable lessons I’ve learned throughout my journey. My goal is to educate and inspire others, equipping them with the tools and knowledge they need to make informed choices and create lasting, positive change for their families and communities.
