Lumber Dyke #18

Pronouns: they/she

Height: 5'5

Favorite position: Jammer

Significance of name/#: For all the times people have called me 'dyke' to try to dehumanize me or shame me, I chose to reclaim the name as a source of power, pride, and gratitude for the struggle of all the 2SLGBTQIA+ folks who came before me. And I wield chainsaws.

Likes: Bufflehead Ducks!

Dislikes: your invasive ornamental plants. And lawn.

Occupation: Conservation spike crew supervisor (ie I'm usually in the forest and often have giardia)

Major injuries: I ripped my left shoulder by turning a manual labor job into a personal battle against patriarchy. My bicep got sliced in half and my shoulder is now held together with three screws.

Your first day in roller derby: December 2022

Bio: Trying to navigate ways to live with resilience and integrity in the age of late stage capitalism and climate change. And celebrate tardigrades.
