HOW SERVING ON THE ISI BOARD HAS BENEFITED HER CAREER:


“ I think it has made me more aware of what a difference I can make both on and off the ice from an individual standpoint and given me the confidence to do so.”

If you’ve ever called the ISI office for assistance with processing your member- ship, competition paperwork or tests, or to have a ques- tion answered, chances are you’ve spoken to ISI Mem- bership Coordinator Sandey Carlsen.


She’s been with ISI for 5 ½ years and has a pas- sion for ISI and the industry. She travels to all our ISI national competitions to oversee the ISI registration desk. Sandey is most notable for her bright smile, youthful spirit, energetic personality and willing- ness to go the extra mile to help our members.


“I love the folks I work with and enjoy watching our skaters progress year after year,” she says.

Caroline Baker FIRST PAYING JOB:


“ While in high school, I sold Avon so that I could earn money for ice skating. I had to have a job that allowed flexible hours so that I could travel.”


ISI PROUD “ The Ice Sports Industry (ISI) has gone above and beyond in their efforts toward inclusion, support and opportunity for their skaters, including me. Confidence projected to a Model United Nations committee of 90-plus delegates, fluidity in adjusting to new schools, camaraderie easily formed with any new face — all would cease to exist in my life without the ISI program. Eight years of competition has broken me down yet built me back up, complete with the constant encour- aging smiles greeting my family and me when we enter each foreign rink for competition. I’ve learned grace. I’ve realized humility. I’ve found strength. In everything I do, I carry the failsafe work ethic and creativity I’ve acquired throughout the years with me.”


— Emily Magda, 2018 ISIA Education Foundation Scholarship recipient
