I am from
I am from a family of six,
traveling the world from Canada, to France, to Denmark,
soaking in the history, culture, and foods.
I am from a family of hockey players, Notre Dame to the NHL.
My dad held me, I stood. He let me go, I fell. He taught me, I skated.
The ice screeches as my blades cut through it like a knife.
I am from a family of chefs, from the shores of Lake Ontario to the town of Hartland,
the barbeque smoke infusing the meat
where family, friends, food and fun unite.
I am from a history of giants with cousins reaching 6’5”,
while I am stretching to hit 5’9”,
praying my growth will explode!
I am from a family of entrepreneurs,
we build it, cook it, or sell it,
I believe my path as a business owner has been sealed.
I am from a family of hockey players,
a family of exploring,
and a family of entrepreneurs.
