Raven lunachick #88

What do you like to do outside of derby?

I enjoy spending time with my kids and husband watching movies, playing games, and hanging around the farm. Otherwise I can almost always be found listening to a True Crime Podcast and tinkering around with some kind of art or craft project.

Do you have a favorite derby moment?

Every time I conquer a skill that I couldn’t do before. The moment when it finally *clicks* and now it’s a thing I know how to do. I may not do it well and may have trouble repeating it, but it’s always a new favorite moment all over again.

What do you do for a living?

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. After 12 years in community mental health I made the move this year to become a middle school counselor!

Tell us about your derby name and number.

My name is a play on the phrase “raving lunatic”. It’s a tongue-in-cheek nod to my profession as a Counselor and a personal joke that I must have been “mad” to join a roller derby league at 39-years-old. “Raven” was also a way for me to honor my biggest inspiration, my kids, who are all named after birds. #88 is my birthday so I thought I'd try to bring some of that Leo energy to the track.

What motto do you live by?

“There are three ways to ultimate success: The first way is to be kind. The second way is to be kind. The third way is to be kind.” -Mr. Rogers

…Until we’re on the track of course ;)
