Our Camp Directors

I have been attending camp as a camper and staff for 15 years and was a camper at HHH as a kid where I fell in love with the combined aspects of camp and high-level hockey training in the summer. Spending 6 years as a camper made me want to continue my journey as a staff member, working as a hockey coach and counselor at HHH for 7 years. I graduated from Dalhousie University with a Bachelor of Commerce in 2019 and started as the business manager at Hockey Haven in 2020. I continue to coach youth through sports at camp and on the ice with the objective of inspiring work ethic, respect, and a love for the game of hockey and all things sport.

I Have played hockey for 12 years as a goaltender and was part of my high school team as well as the Guelph Gryphons minor team for five years. I started at Halliburton Hockey Haven sports camp in 2018 as a cabin counselor with an on-ice presence assisting the goalies. Since then, I have progressed from counselor to goalie coach, Director of the Leader in Training program and now Program Director. Summer 2022 was my first summer as program director at Hockey Haven and I look forward to coordinating and continuing to develop our on-site programming, with the goal of providing our campers with the best experience possible. Aside from hockey, some of my favorite camp activities are basketball, tennis, bonfires, and tetherball! If you or your campers have any ideas or games you would love to see at camp, I am always happy to hear them!

I have been with HHH since the summer of 2019 working as a camp counsellor and lifeguard. Two things that I loved growing up were playing sports and spending time at the cottage in Haliburton so when hearing about HHH, I was very excited to be able to have a work opportunity that incorporated both. Since then, I have become very passionate about working with kids in an inclusive and encouraging manner. Camp gives kids a chance to strengthen their skills in athletics while also building self-confidence in a social setting.

I am currently in the process of completing a Bachelor of Science in Environmental science at the University of Guelph. I hope to pursue a career in environmental education where I can work in an outdoor, hands-on setting like that of camp. I am committed to ensuring kids have an enjoyable and memorable time while at camp!
