Our staff keeps on growing!
Our Colorado Avalanche staff here at Mile High Hockey continues to grow! As we head into next season, we’ve got a couple of new faces to look out for. Jess Shelton and Ryan O’Hara used to write for our sister site, Puck Yeti, and now have moved to MHH to write for us! I’ll let them introduce themselves.
Hey there, I’m Jess! I’m currently a student double-majoring in psychology and communications. I grew up loving any and all Colorado sports teams, whether it be at the professional, minor league, or college level. I initially started copywriting when I did my yearbook at my high school, and I absolutely fell in love with writing. I also fell in love with everything that was involved with covering my high school’s sports teams, like photography, for example. I learned in high school that I could ultimately combine my passion for sports with my passion for writing and sports coverage by pursuing a career doing something like social and digital media for a team full time, which is my ultimate goal. I hope to grow my copywriting skills through writing for MHH and bring quality content to readers! I can’t wait to get started!
Hey all, I’m Ryan O’Hara. I’m an award-winning sportswriter based in Denver, Colorado. I’m 30 years old and have been recognized by the Boxing Writers Association of America five times for my accomplishments. I am also a lifelong hockey player and have played since the age of 7. I also covered the 2022 Stanley Cup Finals for Inside The Rink!
