You can check out MINNESOTA MEAN and the rest of her films at www.emergencepictures.com. - Secretary/Co-Treasurer: Juliana Tillema
Juliana is the parent of Royal Mayhem, who has turned their mom from “I don’t sports,” to “pump up the jams!” Juliana spends her work days making primary care higher quality, more affordable, accessible, and equitable. She also serves on the Board of the MN School Based Health Alliance where she is the Policy Chair. Besides watching derby and hanging out with family, Juliana reads, gardens, cooks, and exercises for fun. - Board Member at Large/Co-Treasurer: Carmen Paredes Dockry
Carmen is mom to skater Ultraviolence. By day she works at a non-profit collecting gently used medical supplies and equipment to give them a second home and prevent them from ending up in landfills. Her passions include plants, orchids, and cats. She lives vicariously through her amazing skater’s accomplishments on the track.
