Call me Tyger

My name just popped into my head one day as I was trying to squeeze the last little bit of Tiger Balm out of the tube. 

When you joined the team:  April 2011.  Best. Birthday present. EVER.

Biggest asset:  My tyger bombs?  Or maybe being able to sweep half your blockers off the track.

Power Animal:  Duh!

Favorite part of derby:  I love that there is a place for everybody.  No matter your age or size, if you want it bad enough and work hard enough, you can play derby.  It also never gets stagnant – the game is constantly changing and there is always a new skill to learn.  And I have met so many talented and inspiring people from all over the world!

Day-job:  Civil servant

Other hobbies besides derby:  I make jewelry.  Or rather, I made jewelry before my life was taken over by derby.  Now what free time I have left is spent painting helmets.  www.facebook.com/tygerbombhelmets 

I also try to spend some time with my long-suffering husband and our squadron of geriatric cats and dogs.
