Description:

I fell in love with the sport of hockey during my childhood in Colorado (Detroit may be “Hockey Town”, and Minnesota might be the “State of Hockey” – but Denver is the capitol of the “Hockey Mountain Region”). The Avs have been my favorite NHL team since the beginning of my fandom. . . I am a student, daughter, sister, friend, knitter, baker, outdoorsman, budding hockey player, freelance writer, amateur photographer, graphic designer, bibliophile, and above all a rabid HOCKEY FAN!
