Hi Smarty! I have had the pleasure of being in your classes at Northeast Derby Convention and learned so much from you! My question is, how have you kept yourself in shape to be able to play for so many years and avoid injuries? Derby is such a tough sport on the body, especially for jammers! How have you been able to play for so long? I was only able to play for 4 years (almost solely jamming) before I felt my body wasn't able to take it anymore and I retired.

I was 33 when I started. I can see how starting younger is a big advantage in having longevity in the sport! :)

Hi Ashley! You are my all time favorite skater and you inspire me in my own skating every day! My question is, what do you have planned for after the Olympics? Do you want to get into coaching at all?
