What’s the best thing that has come from joining roller derby?

Getting to be a part of a sport that I love doing and having teammates who I know I could depend on for anything, on and off the track.

How did you choose your name?

I had an awful time coming up with a name, couldn’t find anything clever or special enough. Then one day I was talking to another skater who suggested it and it just stuck. I did throw in the K to personalize it however.

Do you have any fears?

Being alone in the dark in an unfamiliar place.

What would you like your derby legacy to be?

It’s my goal to become such an effective blocker that the other teams fear me.

Any hidden talents?

Claw machine wizard.

What’s your best derby memory?

My first away bout, we were playing upstate, outside and it was freezing and we only had two vet skaters to look to for guidance. By the end of the first half we were losing badly and some of us were looking pretty miserable and feeling unsure of ourselves. Then during halftime we had this amazing pep talk and it gave us a confidence boost that helped us pull it together in the second half. We didn’t win, but we broke 50 points and that was enough to make everyone happy, like truly happy. Being able to celebrate my team’s own, little victory was far more important than the score.

Any pet peeves?

Lack of common courtesy and people who chew loudly.

What is your dream job?

Getting paid to play roller derby would be amazing, but realistically I would love do sound effects for cartoons or to be a part of the production crew for a hit movie.
