I joined St. Paul Freifechter in 2022 and began my journey studying Joachim Meyer’s material under Scott MacDonald. In 2023, I got my first taste of the competitive side of HEMA in the Beginners Longsword Icebreaker Tournament. That experience gave me a greater connection to the broader HEMA community. I decided to volunteer for the Board of Directors role of Treasurer with St. Paul Freifechter Non-Profit Organization. I was elected and took over the Treasurer role at the beginning of 2024.
