Tessa and Scott were paired as a dance team in October, 1997, by Scott’s aunt, Carol Moir, who coached them in both singles and dance at the Ilderton Skating Club. Almost immediately the team began working with Paul MacIntosh on a part-time basis, traveling to and from Waterloo in the wee hours of the morning several times a week. In 2002, the team moved to Kitchener-Waterloo to train full-time with Paul MacIntosh and Suzanne Killing. In 2004, Tessa and Scott moved again – this time to Canton, Michigan to skate at the Arctic Edge Arena with Igor Shpilband and Marina Zoueva.
