Athletic Background:
I don’t have much in the way of an “athletic background”. I was a band-geek, D&D-playing, video-gaming, *nerd* back before it was “cool”. When I showed up to my first roller derby practice and said “Hi, I’m new.” and everyone replied in unison “Hi, New!” I knew I’d found my people.
