Welcome to my new site!

I am very excited about the new design, and all the new information. We have all worked very hard to get it up and running before I left for the U.S. Nationals. I give a great amount of thanks to Lana for doing such great work.

Glad to say that Nationals are over. :) First year senior was so much fun, and I enjoyed every bit of the experience. I finished 8th, and was extremely happy with that end result.

One of my goals to accomplish during these championships was to land the triple Axel. I stepped out of it in the short, but nailed it in the long. It was the first one ever to be landed in competition. I am thrilled!

I have also gotten a lot of great feedback with the performances in Dallas. It makes me look forward to everything in the future.

On the top 8 finish, it opens a lot of opportunities for me in the upcoming season. I will do some Senior Internationals events in the fall, and will remain in the USFSA Envelopes. I was also named as the 1st alternate for the World Junior Championships.

Now that my season is on a rest time, I need to start thinking of new programs, new outfits, and most of all start busting my butt on new elements.

I would like to make a strong showing at the next Nationals in Atlanta. I'm ready to do everything that is needed in order to do so. I have a few shows coming up in the spring time, and I will be sure to post in my schedule as soon as they are confirmed.

Thanks for looking at my new web site, and all my latest information is posted frequently. So be sure to check back :)

All my love,

Nick
