Jobs Landed: Anna VanderMarliere

I feel very fortunate to have two jobs that I absolutely love! I'm a producer/board operator (DJ) for the Karsch and Anderson show on 97.1 The Ticket, WXYT. Working in sports radio has always been a dream of mine, and I couldnt ask for a better environment or better co-workers than I have at the Ticket. I have always been very proud to be from the best sports city in America, and having the opportunity to work for the flagship station for Detroits 4 major sports puts me right in the middle of the action. Everyday, I learn, laugh and interact with fascinating people and passionate Detroit sports fans.
 
Ten years ago, I turned one of my biggest passions into a profession. I am Goalie Coach for local AAA  Ice Hockey organizations and high school programs; and 4 years ago started my own business, Point Blank Hockey School, LLC.  Point Blank specialize's in on-ice and off-ice training for Goaltenders, Girls High School programs and Youth Skill and Development. Having grown up in St. Clair Shores, playing hockey has always been an enormous part of my life and provided me with  friendships and memories that I hold dear to my heart. However, although playing was a blast, coaching gives me gratification beyond words. Seeing these children progress and gain confidence both on and off the ice, is an amazing feeling. This game has created so many opportunities for me and made so many of my dreams come true; if I can help just one player succeed and have those opportunities that they dream about, I will have accomplished my goal as a coach.
 
I look forward to going to work everyday and am so grateful to be from, live in and give back to Metro Detroit.
