MEET THE TEAM

GIANNA BUCKLEY

AGE: 10

I began skating when I was five. My main goal is to be the best skater I can be and to one day go to the Olympics.

I currently go to school at St Alphonsus and I'm in the fifth grade. In addition to skating I take ballet and enjoy dancing, reading and drawing fashions. My favorite color is pink and my favorite singer is Taylor Swift.

When I grow up I would like to be a figure skating coach. My favorite skaters are Sasha Cohen and Yuna Kim. My favorite Ice Dancers are Meryl Davis & Charlie White.

Caleb and I are currently skating at the Juvenile Ice Dance level.

CALEB NIVA

AGE: 13

I'm in the 8th grade at Washington Virtual Academy and I love sports! Besides skating I enjoy riding bikes and playing soccer in the yard. I kayak lakes all over the pacific northwest and I like to travel whenever I can. I have already travelled to Canada, Mexico, and throughout Europe. You can often find me listening to music too.

I started skating in Sacramento, California when I was 4 years old and skated ever since. I enjoy the camaraderie of working with Gianna and the challenge of ice dancing. I also take ballet to improve my skating, balance, and strength.

My favorite skaters are Kurt Browning, Scott Hamilton, Evan Lysacek, Michael Weiss and ice dancers Meryl Davis and Charlie White.
