What do you like the most about Roller Derby?
Roller derby has been a great source of stress relief for me, and there’s also this amazing opportunity to share this wonderful sport with an incredibly diverse group of women working to empower each other.

Favorite Food?
Korean barbecue (it’s such a cool experience!).

Final Thoughts
Finding roller derby has done a lot for me in terms of my fitness, self-confidence, and overall attitude. I’m so glad I went to recruitment night!
