So, you want to know about me personally eh?
I've been playing hockey since 1975 and in the hockey + skating business since December 1990.
I have seen all sides of the hockey business. I've worked as a rink manager, shop salesman, store manager, hockey league owner/manager, hockey camp/school coordinator, hockey coach, Corporate Manufacturers Retail/Pro Sales Rep, Corporate Manufacturers Sales Manager, Product Designer, Product Manager, Regional Research & Development Coordinator, Independent Manufacturers Rep/Owner of Rep Agency, and finally, business owner.
I've had the opportunity of meeting the greatest athletes in all of sport, professional hockey players. I've worked for a hockey manufacturer wearing many different hats. Unfortunately, I found out how antiquated the industry is, and how it isn't run with business sense, but straight from the heart.
I doubt that these companies will ever get it right, so, I've moved on to do my own thing and something I love. Sure, days can be tough, however, there are far worse things out there, such as being unemployed, or, working a job that I absolutely hate.
My business is challenging and I learn something new every day; I wouldn't trade it for the world!
