Your Childhood Ambition:
My childhood ambition was to be a professional tennis player, just kick back everyday and do something that you love to do and get paid for it!  It’s even healthy for you.

What was your first job:
My first job was waitressing at the beach restaurants. It was fun, busy and I got to meet a lot of interesting people.

What is your favorite snack:
My favorite snack is M&M’s with peanuts- that’s my easy access snack; probably in a tie for first is ice cream, but I like to put a bunch of stuff on it so it’s not so convenient.

What does your perfect day look like:
A perfect day to me is sunshine at the beach or in the mountains, not a cloud in the sky and a little breeze…no work, no problems, no stress!

Who is your greatest inspiration:
My grandmother is my greatest inspiration.  She was the foundation of her family and was a very giving person, but you were never allowed to tell anyone when she gave you something or did anything for you.  She was always there when I needed her.

What is your favorite season:
My favorite season is fall, it’s very refreshing.

What is your favorite book:
I don’t really have a favorite book; I seem to only have time to read academic books…joy.

What is your hobby:
My hobby is being outdoors and working in the yard/garden.

What is something that most people don't know about you:
Most people probably think of me as working all of the time, but I love to play sports, run, workout and do just about anything outside.

If you could have lunch with a famous person, who would it be and why:
They don’t have to be famous, but I love to talk with old people because they know so much and can have very interesting stories to tell.  I also love to talk to young children because you never know what they are going to say and I love to see their mind work.
