Terri Fire

El Paso, Texas

I'm a fresh meat in the El Paso Roller Derby team. I began the fresh meat training program in Dec 2011. My goal is to become a triple threat (jammer, blocker and pivot). My love for derby began when I saw a bout in Boston and despite being small, I could not stop thinking about skating. I ordered a pair of skates two weeks later and I never regretted it.
