QUESTIONS:
Who introduced you to curling: My parents, Jim & Sharon. I grew up around curling, and I first stepped onto the ice not long after I started walking. Once I was older, I would ride on the curling stones. After I outgrew that, I started curling with the little rocks...then eventually the regulation-sized stones. The rest is history. It was a natural progression!
What is the best advice you’ve ever received: Do your thing.
Favorite Color: Green
Do others in your family curl: Yes, my whole family curls: my parents, sister, aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents all curl or have curled in the past.
