Personal Statement

I consider myself a well-rounded person who is dedicated to being the best academically, on the ice and off the ice. I'm a solid team player and value the meaningful relationships I've built through the years with my teammates and coaches.

My passion is hockey. I'm highly motivated and put in the hard work during hockey season and off-season to get stronger, faster, and work on all levels of my game to continue to play at the highest level possible.

This past year with the WBS Knights has been an amazing opportunity to be on their inaugural team, being Division Champions, and now headed to Nationals. It's been a year of tremendous growth both on and off the ice and I'm looking forward to continuing to move forward!

American Hockey Report: April 30-May 2, 2021: NAHL Combine-Columbus (Junior) Parikh makes the right plays for most situations in the defensive zone. He did a good job seeing the play and reacting to it in a quick enough manner. He provided steady shifts and his overall game was able to handle many different situations that he was faced with. He worked well with others and always jumped onto the ice ready to go make a positive play and take care of the puck when in possession. AHR Rating: B
