15 years ago today a few pals and I set out on a summer road trip of a lifetime, on in-line skates chasing a dream of one day building CanadianBlindHockey. Today I am at the NHL Awards in Las Vegas receiving the 2024 NHL Willie O'Ree Award. Life and hockey is beautiful.

The Sphere was truly epic! As a fan with low vision it was so positive on accessibility. This venue is unreal! The size of images made me feel genuinely engaged and entertained. Thanks to the NHL for the invite to the 2024 Draft Substance Group

For years my purpose was helping people who are blind or with low vision play hockey. Now I want to work on advancing accessibility to help people around the world who are blind or with low vision become a fan and fall in love with our game. #NHL #HockeyIsForEveryone
