She ain’t your sweet little sister…

Join Date?

August 2009

First bout?

June 2007 (with the Mason-Dixon Roller Vixens)

Best position?

Jammer/Blocker

What brought you to DDR?

The desire to play at a more competitive level and be a part of a well-organized group of amazing people.

What keeps your wheels turning?

Why, well-oiled bearings do, of course! snort! That and something intangible, yet incredibly rewarding. It’s just a feeling. It’s skating faster, feeling stronger, a successful block, hearing that whistle as you break the pack as lead jammer. Something like that.

What is your most embarrassing derby moment?

Shameless people are hard to embarrass. However, I did once emphatically try to call of a jam when I was not Lead Jammer. Oh my.

What is your proudest derby moment?

Playing at regionals in 2010 - the good, the bad, and the ugly, I’ll take it all!

DDR Awards/ Fan Favorite Awards?

2009 Rookie of the Year

Got any injury stories?

I think the worst of it was a bruised rib… Many bruises… Permanent rink rash on my left butt cheek.

Impress us with your skating skillz…

Come to a bout! Maybe I will.

Send out some heartfelt derby love to your peeps…

Thanks to my family and all my friends that have come to bouts - I love familiar faces in the crowd! MDRV - I miss you ladies! Major thanks to all the HARD, Charm City, and Harm City folks that have helped me learn this game and helped MDRV get started. Punk Sue - my lovely derby wife, I adore you! All my Dutchies, you are the best group to skate with ever! I’ve been through a lot of life changes in the last year, thanks for making me feel like I have a home in Lancaster. <3
