MY BIO
Over the past four seasons, I have been riding all over Canada competing in
Provincial, Atlantic and Canada Cup Series races. Two seasons ago, I worked
at Truro’s Hub Cycle in Nova Scotia while I was attending Acadia University.
In my off time I also ran bike clinics, rider developing days, and lead
weekly group rides, as well as organizing our team to attend the Atlantic
race circuit. After completing my Recreation Management Degree at Acadia,
I ventured west and arrived in Golden. NME Camps were a natural progression
for my professional working career, and to keep doing what I love out here
in the west. I’m excited for these camps to start, and I know it will be
fun and beneficial to all the kids involved, and their riding.
