Competitive roller skater.  A label I have claimed for myself. It’s not a concept familiar to many.  I myself didn’t know what a competitive roller skater was until fairly recently.  Now, I not only use that title as a badge of honor, but I have won medals at the US National Roller Skating Competition.  What may surprise you about my skating origin story is that it only started about two years ago at the age of 25.  That’s not to say that was my first time on skates, however… When I was young, maybe around 7 or 8 years old…
