About the Book

Hailey dreams of becoming an ice skater, but the first time she gets on the ice, she falls. Worried, Hailey wonders if she has a future as a skater. Before her next class, she starts to pay attention to what kind of skater she could be. . .and sees that the world of ice skating is bigger than she ever imagined!

By watching and learning about different types of skating—from figure skating to hockey and ringette—Hailey learns not just about skating, but about the courage to try new things, and the joy of falling. . .and getting back up.

When I Become an Ice Skater is a heartwarming story of discovery, family, and finding your path. Blending personal passion with professional insight, this book is more than just a story. It’s an invitation into the magical, challenging, and rewarding world of skating.

About the Author

I’m a certified skating coach, storyteller, and mom inspired by the magic of childhood. Teaching kids to skate and nurturing their curiosity inspired me to write a children’s book full of imagination, learning, and joy.

I didn’t just want my own children to learn how to skate—I wanted them to fall in love with it. I wanted them to feel confident on the ice, have fun, and have such a positive experience that they’d always want to come back—feeling inspired and motivated every time.

As an author, my mission is to share the joy of skating and imagination with as many children as possible, helping them feel included, inspired, and excited to discover their passions. I want every child to know that skating—and learning—is for everyone.

I live in Chestermere, Alberta, with my husband, Alex, and our children.
