Mission Statement
When it comes to playing hockey in America, I have an advantage over other European players. When I was 15 I moved away from my home in Austria to play hockey in Norway for the Nordic Hockey Academy. Since then I have always been in an international environment being in an English school for the past five years of my life. Therefore my English skills are better than most European players. I have also socialised with other people/team mates who speak different languages and come from all over the world. I believe that I can help a team win a championship at a high level. Furthermore I am a disciplined student who takes his schooling seriously and knows how to combine a quality education with high level hockey.
