Figure Skating Coaching

About My Coaching

I am a passionate and dedicated figure skating coach with over 15 years of skating experience and 10 years of coaching experience. I began skating in 2008 in Los Angeles, where I trained under coaches who have worked with US National Champions and Olympians. Since moving to New Zealand in 2018, I have coached skaters in Auckland who have gone on to win their levels at NZIFSA Nationals and achieve placements in competitions across Australia.

I hold a Level 2 NZIFSA coaching accreditation and was previously a USFS-accredited coach and PSA member in the United States. I have worked with skaters from beginner to international level in both private and group settings, and I aim to combine strong technical development with confidence, enjoyment, and long-term progress on the ice.

With a background in competition dance and choreography, I also enjoy helping skaters develop performance quality and programs that reflect their strengths and personality.
