==Career== Appelman has made most of his successes to date as a skip, during the [[2008–09 curling season|2008–09 season]] and the [[2009–10 curling season|2009–10 season]]. His team was invited to participate in the [[2009 Canada Cup of Curling]], where he finished with a 1–4 record. His successes during that season qualified the team for the [[2009 Canadian Olympic Curling Trials|2009 Canadian Olympic Pre-Trials]], where he lost in the C-qualifier semi-final to [[Bob Ursel]]. Coming from a very competitive province, Appelman has never made to the [[Tim Hortons Brier|Brier]], but he lost in the semi-final at the [[2010 Boston Pizza Cup]] (Alberta's provincial championship) in an attempt to do so.
On the World Curling Tour, Appelman and his rink have won four career tour events. In 2008 they won the [[Boston Pizza Shootout]], the [[Meyers Norris Penny Charity Classic]] and the [[Red Deer Curling Classic]] and in 2009 they won the [[Kamloops Crown of Curling]]. His top [[Grand Slam of Curling|Grand Slam]] event was the [[2009 Players' Championships]] where his team lost in the quarterfinals.
Appelman also represented Alberta at the [[2007 Canadian Mixed Curling Championship]] (held in 2006), where his Alberta rink finished the round robin with a 7–4 record, but lost in a tie breaker.
In [[2011–12 curling season|2011–2012]], he joined forces with [[Randy Ferbey]], [[David Nedohin]] and [[Brendan Melnyk]]. After a successful World Curling Tour season, the team failed to qualify for Northern Alberta Regionals, losing in the Edmonton Zones to [[Kevin Park]]. At the conclusion of the season, the team disbanded as Ferbey retired and Nedohin formed a new team.
==Personal life== Appelman is married and has two children. He works as a process operator for Umicore Canada.<ref name="MG"/>
