17 Slammin’

Why did you join roller derby?

To learn a new sport as an adult and be a part of a bunch of fearless people.

Favorite Derby Accomplishment / Proudest Moment?

Getting through tryouts and accepted into MRD.

What I do off-skates?

I’m a Program Coordinator at Maine Cancer Foundation in my professional life.

Do you have any hobbies besides roller derby (or) what is your passion?

I garden in the summers, spend time on the beach and generally goof around whenever possible.

Favorite post-practice snack?

Protein!

Favorite trick on skates

I did a 360 jump once… That was pretty cool.

Most Likely to ___________.

Use my forearms. Ha!

What is your sports/skating background?

I grew up playing softball because I wanted to play a sport that didn’t require running. I in-line skated as a kid for fun in the neighborhood and finally got back on skates 9 months before trying out for MRD.

Do you have a pre-bout ritual?

EAT ALL THE FOOD. Also? Listen to Bad Reputation by Joan Jett on repeat.

If you had your own theme song, what would it be?

Oh man, I have no idea. Related to derby I’d probably say Me Too by Meghan Trainor… I’d like to think I’m a badass while skating.

Anything else?

You can find me in the old port dressed as a t-rex on Sunday afternoons when it’s warm out!
