Whatever I do, I want to impact people's lives in a positive way.

The cool thing about a start-up - this is sort of the entrepreneur side of me - is that you can make it grow as much as you can. Or you can squander the talent as much as you want. But it's up to you.

I am the oldest in our family. I have three younger brothers. I needed to set a great example for them. It instilled a sense of competition in me and hunger to strive to be the best. There's a lot of pride being the only girl and the oldest.

Equality should be a thing we don't even have to talk about anymore.

It's a great culture to be a part of: there are hockey players all over the world. It has taken me to an education, getting an education at Wisconsin. I've been able to travel the world.

Being surrounded by great women and amazing role models and good teammates allowed me to unfold and evolve into the person that I am today.

Women in general, we tend to shrink ourselves and not have as much confidence as we should in presenting ourselves and our body types. It's OK to be fit and healthy and comfortable within your body, whatever frame you have.

Now I can give back and be a role model and an advocate for women in sport.

People don't know how fantastic women's ice hockey is. People don't know how fantastic hockey is in general.

When our world is telling girls and women who they should be or what they should look like, it is critical that we empower those girls and young women to be confident with who they are.

Obviously, different people identify me as the face of women's hockey and whatnot, but like my teammates, I'm just there to perform and compete.

The songs that are on my playlist find themselves there because I can identify with the lyrics, or they have some magical transformative power in the beat.

I love going to the movies, whitewater rafting in the summer when I am home in Idaho, biking in the summer in Idaho, paddle boarding in the summer.

I try to get a well-balanced diet with a mix of greens, protein, and carbs.

My dad was traveling a lot, but when he would come home and cook, he'd cook pizza.
