In 2018, he played for Master's FA in League1 Ontario.[9] In 2019, he switched to play for the Oakville Blue Devils.[10] In 2021, he began the season with the Blue Devils for one match, before returning to Master's where he scored 11 regular season goals to be named East Division MVP and a East 1st team All-Star,[11] also scoring a brace in a penalty kick shootout loss in the playoff semi-finals to eventual champions, Guelph United.[12]

In 2022, he signed with the expansion side Simcoe County Rovers of League1 Ontario.[13]
