Hello! I’m Anna Berman, an artistic roller skater from Portland, Oregon! Last month, I competed at the National Championships in Reno, with the hope of qualifying for the 2025 World Championships… And well, let’s just say I ended up qualifying for my fourth World Championship to represent Team USA at worlds in Beijing, China!

For as long as I have been skating, it has been a dream of mine to travel the world through my sport. I love experiencing different places, cultures, food, and skating atmospheres – but most of all, I love being able to put all of my heart into my performances and show how hard I have worked. I would also like to mention that I am beyond grateful to everyone who has supported me throughout this season and past seasons, especially my coaches Eddie Campbell & Melody Berman (mom). They have put so much into helping me succeed and will also be going to Beijing alongside me. We have been met with this amazing opportunity that I am so excited about, but with all of the thrill comes the not-so-pretty side of traveling… and by that, I mean the unavoidable expenses that are all on the athletes to take care of. Unfortunately, artistic roller skating is not a funded sport, which ends up putting a lot of financial struggles on the athletes. I have so much passion for this sport and want to represent the USA with all that I have, which is why any donation, big or small, makes such a huge impact on my efforts!
