In the 1996–97 season, Hollander trained under Diana Ronayne in St. Clair Shores, Michigan.[1] In 1999, he sustained a number of injuries that forced him to turn professional. He became known for his comedic skating programs.[citation needed] Hollander announced his retirement from competition by executing a backflip, which is an illegal element in figure skating.[2]
Hollander coaches figure skating in Maryland.[3] On October 17, 2015, he married a skating coach, Emily Chase, in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan.[4] Their daughter, Arianna Alina, was born on May 13, 2016.[5]
