For the past 8 years, Roller Derby has been more than a sport to me — it’s been a passion, a community, and a huge part of who I am. From my very first training session, I set myself a big goal: to one day play Roller Derby overseas.

That goal is now within reach.

I’ve been accepted to play with the Jewish Roller Derby team competing in France at the Men’s Roller Derby World Cup at the end of April 2026. This is an incredible honour and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to represent my community, my sport, and years of hard work on an international stage.

I won’t be going alone; my brother Brett from Crossroad Media will be travelling with me, documenting the experience through photography so I can share this journey with everyone who supports me. Together, we want to capture not just the games, but the people, the culture, and the spirit of international Roller Derby.

Why I Need Help

Getting to France and staying there isn’t cheap. Between flights, accommodation, transport, and competition-related expenses, I need to raise approximately $10,000 to make this dream possible. I’ve done everything I can to prepare on the track — now I need help getting there.

What You Get (Besides My Eternal Gratitude)

To say thank you, for every donation, I will hand-draw a truly terrible portrait of you. And I mean terrible in the most loving way.

Examples are posted so you know exactly what you’re getting into.

To receive your portrait:

Make your donation public, or

If you’d rather not, message me privately and I’ll still happily draw you (poorly).

Why This Matters

This opportunity represents years of commitment, resilience, and belief in a goal that once felt impossibly far away. With your support, I can step onto the world stage and play the sport I love at the highest level — something I’ve been working toward for nearly a decade.

If you’re able to donate, share, or cheer me on from afar, it all means more than I can say. Thank you for helping turn this dream into reality — and for embracing the joy of questionable art along the way.
