1.When and how did you get started in derby?
I started in 2014, a few months after I moved to East-Flanders with my boyfriend. I was looking for a new hobby/sport I could do. Living in a new environment, not knowing many people. Via Facebook, I saw an event promoting to join the intake for Gent Go-Go Roller Girls team. Sence I’ve always rollerskated as a child, it felt natural.

2. What’s been your favourite derby moment?
The feeling I experience whenever I’m lead jammer 🙂

3. Who are your derby heroes?
Our very own Salomons and Olga Volt.

4. How did you pick your derby name?
Still waiting for the perfect name…

5. What’s your worst injury?
Muscle tear and broken kneecap

6. What advice would you give to someone who would like to play derby?
These past years I’ve received not only body and mental strength but also so much friendship and fun. It’s worth falling millions of times :P.

7. If I wasn’t playing derby, I’d be …
Couchbenching Netflix 😀
