Ten years ago, Carol added hockey writing to her toolbox. Assignment highlights have included the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoff bubble in Edmonton and five IIHF World Championships in Europe.
Education
With a bachelor's degree in English and and MBA from the University of British Columbia, Carol can find significant numerical indicators, then explain how they impact sports betting outlooks. She also has a broadcasting diploma, and has worked on air and been a writer for radio.
