Willowbrook Skating Company

It all started with signing up for a class!

For most of her skating career, Mary Beth trained in Chicago. When Mary Beth’s parents signed her up for skating classes at the age of 8, they had no idea this was the first step of an

incredible journey. Just three years later Mary Beth was competing in Regional, Sectional, Jr. National, and National competitions. After much success she moved to Southern California to train with her skating partner, coaches Jenni Meno Sand, and Todd Sand (both 3x Olympians), and coaching legend John Nicks who taught World Champion pair team Tai Babilonia and Randy Gardner, as well as 2006 Olympic Silver Medalist Sasha Cohen. Mary Beth and her partner became the 2012 US National Silver Medalist, one of the top ten pair teams in the world.
