Personal

At age 16 he moved from Federal Way, WA, to Salt Lake City, UT, where he joined US Speedskating's Facilitated Athlete Sport Training [FAST] programme. In 2021 he was living with US short track skater John Robert Celski and his wife, Andrea Do-Duc, the short track programme director for US Speedskating. "It was pretty rough [moving away from family]. I didn't have any cooking experience and the FAST teams start skating at 05:45 in the morning. So it was kind of rough, but I got used to it." His first senior international competition was the 2021 World Championships in Dordrecht, Netherlands, where he was part of the US team that finished seventh in the 5000m relay. "I had never been out of the country and it was really a fun experience to see how other skaters from different countries skated." In May 2021 he was promoted from the FAST programme to the senior US national team. "Usually you skate on the FAST team for three to four years and then you get bumped up. That was really big for me."
