In Own Words:
Curling has been a major part of my life since I was 8 years old. My first year of juniors began when I was 12 years old. [cr][lf][cr][lf]I currently help run the Vernon Junior Program for the past 6 years and am the Vernon rep for the Okanagan Junior Inter City League. My belief is that curling has given me so much over the years it's time that I give back to the game that has given me so much. [cr][lf][cr][lf]My oldest daughter Jaelyn, 12 years, is now actively curling and played her first year of juveniles last year. I was fortunate enough to coach the team. Some ask me what the pressure is like when curling and often say, there is no pressure in curling. Coaching your child and watching behind the glass is more pressure then I can handle..... My other 2 children are now getting the itch to start curling. I look forward to coaching them one day as well. [cr][lf][cr][lf]Since I was 9 years old, it's been a major goal to win the Brier. Hopefully one day this dream will come true. In recent years curling as become an Olympic sport and like most competitive curlers, the Olympics is extremely high on the bucket list.[cr][lf][cr][lf][cr][lf]
