How did you get involved in Roller Derby?
A new friend in a new city kept wearing all of this roller derby swag. I finally got up the nerve to ask her what it was (this was right before Whip It came out). She explained and asked if I was interested in joining. Without hesitation, I, a person who was NOT previously an athlete, said “yes.”

Proudest moment as a Derby Athlete so far? I had the honor of playing in a bout against Gotham in New York City.

Favourite Positions: Blocker & Pivot

Why I need your support: 
Every journey has its milestones, and for me, the upcoming Roller Derby World Cup in Innsbruck represents a pinnacle of achievement and passion. Since I first laced up my skates, roller derby has been more than just a sport; it has shaped my identity, fostered friendships, and taught me the value of perseverance. Competing on the world stage is a dream come true, but I need your support to make it happen.

Your donations will help cover essential costs such as travel, accommodation, and training expenses, allowing me to focus on what I love most—skating and representing our community. Every contribution, no matter how small, brings me one step closer to realizing this dream. Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for considering supporting my journey. Together, we can make this incredible experience a reality!
