For nearly a decade, I had the incredible privilege of performing as a full cast member of Champions On Ice, bringing laughter and joy to audiences across North America and beyond. From sold-out arenas to intimate venues, I've performed well over 1,000 shows, sharing the ice with Olympic champions and world-class athletes while developing my signature comedic style.

My journey took me from competitive achievements as a two-time National Bronze Medalist and World Team Member to the professional stage as the 2000 American Open Professional Champion. But it was in the touring world where I truly found my calling - combining technical excellence with entertainment that connects with audiences of all ages.

Each routine below represents not just a performance, but a story crafted through years of experience, countless hours of practice, and the unique perspective that comes from performing night after night in front of live audiences around the world.

Popeye Vs Brutus for the love of Olive Oyl!

I have wanted to create a Popeye routine for quite some time now.  Two years ago, I put together a solo version of Popeye for Mike Weiss’ show, but it just didn’t feel right.

The Best of Sun Valley

I had an idea a few years ago to do the “Best of COI” as directed by Tom Collins. His voice would challenge me to be as good as the other skaters. When he named a skater, I would imitate them to the best of my ability.

I have been "training" Santa at the Gallery Mall in Texas since 2000! I decided to put together a fun video showing Santa getting back into shape to perform. For some reason little kids love watching this video!

USO

I have always liked the “stepping” that the college teams do, which I attempted to add to my Super Hero routine with the “Holler Back Girl.”

So You Think You Can Dance

So in wracking my brain to come up with a second routine for Sun Valley this year, Marcia told me I had to do a Beyonce routine based on the SNL skit with Justin Timberlake.

Shot Gun Wedding

This year Sun Valley decided on a western theme. I have always loved the song “Dearly Beloved” by Faith Hill. It is all about this shot gun wedding in which everyone is flirting with everyone else, with the main part being, “They’ll be together forever till they find somebody new.” It just cracks me up.

I'm Yours & Dancing

I heard this GREAT song “I’m Yours” by Jason Mraz. I couldn’t stop listen to it, knowing that I would eventually skate to it (just like Heaven is a Half Pipe for “Angel”).

Angel

Ahh…one of my favorite numbers that Tom Collins can’t stand. This a great routine Tommy!!! I was returning an item to Circuit City and in the middle of the transaction I heard, “…if I die before I wake, at least in Heaven I can skate…”

The Old Man

I totally ripped this off, and I am happy to admit it. Not wanting to be forced to do Doubtfire again on COI (I felt the audience still deserved something new), I started to think,

Tappin' With Bob

went to a Tap Dogs show ready to find a way to put this cool show on the ice. There was this one part when one guy would tap out a rhythm and the other guy would follow it.
