Is there a story behind your name?

My last name is Sterling and I’ve been obsessed with mermaids for as long as I can remember.

Did you have any previous athletic or skating background before starting roller derby?

I used to cheerlead competitively and for my school as well as play soccer.

Tell us about your gear!

I love wearing crash pads; it’s fun to have someone hit you and you get right back up with no pain because you had pads protecting you. Also, knee pads whenever skating are a must!

We all end up in the penalty box at some point. Which penalty is your favorite and why?

Oh man, my favorite penalty would be clockwise/stop blocks when blocking (somehow after all these years I am still unaware of when I’m doing this and face palm when I hear it called every time). As a jammer, I always crack myself up when I get a low block because I fell.

What’s your favorite Orlando theme park ride?

Velocicoaster at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. I love thrilling roller coasters!

What’s your favorite Orlando activity that isn’t a theme park?

Concerts! So many amazing artists come through Orlando and it seems like I’m at a concert every other weekend.

Everyone loves restaurant recommendations. Which Orlando area restaurant would you tell people to check out?

Saigon Noodle & Bistro – their pho is pheNOMenal (see what I did there 😉)

Into which Hogwarts house would you be sorted?
