Her mentorship enables our players to achieve their personal best and work through any academic challenges along the way.

By providing one on one academic weekly check-ins with the players, coordinating group meetings, setting up SAT and other standardized exam prep classes, and organizing exam writing dates, players will be encouraged to reflect and capitalize on their strengths as well as become aware of the areas in which they can improve. This will enable them to be available for hockey opportunities at the university/college level, hopefully through scholarship. As an educator and a hockey parent, Roberta understands the unique demands on student athletes and will work to support them in balancing all the demands they face.
