Career
As a junior curler, Wark and her team of Darah Provencal, Stephanie Jackson and Sarah Neal won the provincial championship in 2005.[2] The team represented British Columbia at the 2005 Canadian Junior Curling Championships, where they would finish with a 6–6 record.[3]
After juniors, Wark would win two provincial mixed titles, in 2009 playing third for Jason Montgomery and in 2014 as third for Wes Craig. Her win in 2009 qualified her team to represent B.C. at the 2010 Canadian Mixed Curling Championship, where they would lose in the semi-final to Ontario. Her 2014 win qualified her team to represent B.C. at the 2015 Canadian Mixed Curling Championship.
In women's play, Wark has played in (as of 2014) six British Columbia Scotties Tournament of Hearts,[4] the provincial women's championship. Her first was in 2008, playing second for Shellan Reed. The team finished 4–3, missing the playoffs. At the 2009 British Columbia Scotties Tournament of Hearts, Wark played second for Olympic bronze medalist Georgina Wheatcroft. After posting a 4–3 record again, the team lost in a tie breaker. Wark returned to the B.C. Scotties in 2011, throwing fourth stones for the Roselyn Craig rink. The team made the playoffs with a 6–3 record, but lost in the semi-final to the Kelly Scott rink. At the 2012 British Columbia Scotties Tournament of Hearts, the Craig rink once again made the playoffs with a 6–3 record, but this time were eliminated in the 3 vs. 4 game to Kelley Law. At the 2013 British Columbia Scotties Tournament of Hearts, Wark threw fourth stones for the Simone Brosseau team. They had less success, finishing with a 2–7 record. And, at the 2014 British Columbia Scotties Tournament of Hearts, Wark took over as skip of the team, leading the rink to a 4–5 record.
On the World Curling Tour, Wark has won one event, the 2011 Vancouver Island Shootout, playing for the Craig team. Wark has played in three Grand Slam events, the 2007 Wayden Transportation Ladies Classic with Reed (0–3), the 2008 Wayden Transportation Ladies Classic with Maskiewich (3–3), and the 2009 Trail Appliances Curling Classic with Wheatcroft (3–3).
