Hi, It’s Em!
I am a born and raised Vermonter that spent most of her childhood skating in rinks across the State. At 14, I took my skating to the next level and moved around the country, skating competitively until I was 19. I went on to skate professionally as a soloist in shows around the world. My goal is to share my competitive and professional skating experience with the next generation of skaters in Vermont.
