What do you like to do in your spare time?
Eat insane amounts of food and do random spontaneous things for entertainment. I don't like to plan things.
What are two things most people don't know about you?
I'm ambidextrous and I love love love snakes.
Where would you like to spend a week long vacation?
Anywhere with a beach or where it is so hot its almost unbearable.
What's your favorite food? Favorite restaurant in BG?
French fries with lots of ketchup is the way to my heart. I really like Squeakers.
If someone were to make a movie of your life, which actress would you want to play you?
I would want Natalie Portman to play me because she is my favorite actress.
What is one of your biggest pet peeves?
When people think they know what I'm thinking.
Who has had the biggest impact on your life so far?
I have to say my high school volleyball coach, Sue Pyke. She's the one who really got me into volleyball, and if it weren't for her I would not be here.
What are your goals for the spring season and for next year?
This spring semester I hope to improve in the middle as it is a brand new position for me as well as continue working on the right side. Next year I just hope to have a strong impact on our success.
You are a Kinesiology major. What are your future goals and career aspirations?
I hope to go to medical school and find something that I enjoy enough to specialize in, maybe surgery.
If you could have any job in the world, what would be your dream job and why?
My dream job would be where I would lie on a beach and be a vegetable. But as for a real job I would love anything where I would get to travel a lot.
