Monica grew up in Michigan a life long hockey fan that watched the local Flint Genrals as a kid along with the ‘hometown’ Detroit Red Wings. Living outside of Washington D.C. while attending George Mason University for Sports Management Monica got into hockey writing with The Hockey Writers and even started with the Fansided network as lead writer over at Howlin’ Hockey | A Phoenix Coyotes Blog before eventually becoming part of the Octopus Thrower.
