SOUTH SOUND

ROLLER DERBY

SKATER OF THE MONTH

Twerks from South Sound Roller Derby

TWERKS

How’d you get your derby name?

Initially my name was T-Wrecks. However, during bootcamp a lovely member wrote it on some tape and stuck to my helmet. It was somewhat illegible and looked like it said “Twercks”, so that is what stuck. Now I just gotta learn how to twerk 🤣


How long have you been playing roller derby?

Since January 2025, and loving every sore minute if it!


What two things can you not live without?

My family, my hubby and our 2 sons are everything to me 🧡, plus my cats muffin and granite.


What is a hobby of yours?

Traveling, camping…more like “glamping”- too old to sleep on the ground 🤣, snowboarding and of course Roller Derby/skating!


Favorite song of all time?

Aww, of all time….too many to choose…but I’m a huge fan of reggae rock – right now my fave band is The Elovaters “Thailand” or “Endless Summer” (look them up, if you’re into that genre).


Pre/post-bout snacks?

Pre bout, banana and granola. Post bout, burger/fries/tacos or a cocktail with my teammates (vodka seltzer with lime juice).


Favorite thing about SSRD?

The people, the positive vibe and support!! I love this amazing group of new friends so damn much! I’m grateful to be a part of it.🧡
