- Position: RD

- Recreate or First-Gen? 
First Gen!

- First-Gens: How did you find the site? 
ISFL teammates mentioning it to me, and I'm a big hockey fan!

- Full Discord Username (including the hashtag and numbers): Merchant#8730

- How many hours a week do you usually have free? (ie. 1, 3, 6+, etc.)
 
A lot? Tough question honestly. I work remotely on my PC so sim league stuff typically fills time gaps pretty nicely!

- Is water wet? 

I hope so or I've been seriously lied to

- What made you join the SHL? 

I love hockey, fantasy as well as general games strategy, so it's a natural fit really.

- What are your general expectations of your juniors career? Are you looking for a long and successful career as a junior player, or are you hoping to be called up to the big leagues as soon as possible?

Honestly, I want to succeed with teams and help them develop winning cultures & achieve goals. Whether that's in the juniors or the major leagues I'm not overly bothered. Long term I'd want to be involved with team strategy, scouting & locker room building so that's reflected in my individual goals really.

- If you had to give a 30 minute a lecture off of memory what topic would you choose?

Game Design, I think a lot of people tend to find it interesting and I work in it professionally? Or I'd just bore everyone to death talking about my favourite ancient romans.

- Have you ever heard about Kelowna before joining this league?

Believe it or not yes! But I did just spend several years in the process of moving to Canada, so at least briefly researched almost all cities in Ontario & BC haha.

- How do you feel about walruses?

Pretty big animal guy so yeah not bad

- What are your thoughts on the paradox of tolerance?

A largely over-discussed hypothetical that is discussed far too seriously, when common sense dictates that the destruction of intolerance is a necessary step in protecting a tolerant society.

- Any hobbies you’ve been into lately?

Being so busy moving continents, not really! Other than the usual games & sports. Very excited to get Raptors season tickets soon.

- What is the best book you have read and why? (Comics included)

Men at Arms by Terry Pratchett. I read it at 10 years old and it introduced me to literature and the wonderful pursuit of storytelling.

- What do you consider the most important part of a fun league experience?

A social, active Locker Room full of likeminded people working together honestly! If the enthusiasm is there, everything else can follow.

- What’s your favorite Pokemon? Why?

Meowth because cat

- What video games do you play?

Too many. Working in the industry is a great way to ruin many games for you but you also inevitably spend your life around them. World of Warcraft, Starcraft & Dota 2 are probably my all time most played if I had to guess, but I am also a huge fan of many genres, including RPGs (hence the character name)

- If you were to choose a breed of dog you would most likely be, what would it be and why?

Samoyed cause I'm a big cutie
