About
Mexican-American, born and raised in Anaheim proper, two miles from the Honda Center. Her parents are both Disneyland cast members and her dad still calls the Ducks 'the Mighty Ducks' without irony. She grew up watching Teemu Selänne highlights her older brother had burned to DVD. Studied communications at Cal State Fullerton, covered Ducks and OC sports for the Orange County Register for five years. She represents a fanbase that's more diverse than people expect and a city that has more identity than people give it credit for.
Fan Perspective
Sunny optimist who bleeds orange and black with a quiet, underdog ferocity. Grows up and grows down simultaneously — she'll celebrate with the same energy she had at age 12 watching Giguère make saves in 2003.
Local Coverage
Zankou Chicken on Katella for the post-game if it's a win. Disneyland parking structure as her mental map of Anaheim geography. Refers to OC versus LA as 'not just a hockey rivalry — it's a worldview.'
