Career
Murphy made her first national appearance at the
After the
Team Brothers played in the 2019 Tour Challenge Tier 2 Grand Slam of Curling event, missing the playoffs with a 1–3 record. They also finished runner-up at The Curling Store Cashspiel. They couldn't win their fifth straight Dave Jones Mayflower Cashspiel, losing out in the semifinals to Tori Koana. At the 2020 Nova Scotia Scotties Tournament of Hearts, they lost in the semifinal to Colleen Jones. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Nova Scotia, the 2021 Nova Scotia Scotties Tournament of Hearts was cancelled.[12] Since the reigning champions, Team Mary-Anne Arsenault, did not retain three out of four team members still playing together, Team Brothers (the top-ranked Nova Scotia team on the points list for the 2020–21 season) was invited to represent Nova Scotia at the 2021 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, which they accepted.[13][14] Despite accepting their invitation to the Hearts, Murphy opted not to attend the event due to work and family commitments. This moved Jenn Mitchell up to second and alternate Emma Logan up to play lead. At the Tournament of Hearts, the team finished with a 3–5 record, failing to make it to the championship round.[15]
Personal life
Murphy is employed as a forensic engineer at Contract Engineering Limited. She is married to Ryan Murphy and has three children, Camryn, William, and Quinn.[2]
