What's your hometown? NorCal.
Where do you live? same.
When did you start skating? I started skating at age 5 and have been on a roll (literally) ever since.
Where do you love to skate most? I like skating at the big contests actually because it's usually a park built just for the event, so skating there is a challenge. Conquering new terrain and seeing what tricks you can do is super fun.
Who taught you to skate? Being the only girl in the area that skated, I taught myself. So it was a slow process in the beginning.
Why do you love to skate? It's fun to travel, meet people, go to skate events, learn to new tricks, skate new stuff etc.
Tell us about your kookiest moment on wheels: When I was working on learning how to do heel flips, I actually landed a varial heel flip instead. That was kinda wierd.
Any injuries? My most famous injury is constantly breaking my right arm (last time was number 7!) Mostly the usual-pretty much smashed up evenly all over. The hematoma that got me hospitalized last year was pretty brutal though. A guy slammed into me a couple of years ago and I got a concussion where my vision was messed up for a couple of days. That was wierd.
Your favorite Betty Belt? All of them!!! No really, it's way too hard to decide, but my favorite one will always be the one with the waves that you gave me (Dorea).
Which is your favorite Betty B. Item? The Hali-Quarter Moon necklace.
Your motto: (Borrowed from Donna Vano) (and Nietsche! - Donna) Whatever doesn't kill you only makes you stronger!
