If you could see yourself playing another sport (and being really good at it), what would it be?
Tennis is my future sport. I'll play when I retire from volleyball in a few years. I play all the time at home under the lights it's sick!
What do you like to do in your spare time?
I eat all the time or sleep. I'm trying to be a more rounded person.
What are two things most people don't know about you?
I use to play violin, and I bite/pick at my nails just about every second of the day.
What's your favorite food? Favorite restaurant in BG?
Since candy does not count as food I would have to say sushi and as for my favorite restaurant, it would have to be Kermit's considering the number of times I eat there in a week.
If someone were to make a movie of your life, which actress would you want to play you?
Juliette Lewis because she is sarcastic.
What is one of your biggest pet peeves?
You can really grind my gears by breathing or touching my neck. It absolutely kills me and I know I will regret admitting to this.
Who has had the biggest impact on your life so far?
I would have to say my sister Becca because she is my idol. Even though she is younger than me I try to be like her in every aspect of my life. I am blessed to have somebody like her in my life. She is the reason I am the person I am today. She is the strongest person I know, my best friend, and I honestly could not live without her.
What do you see yourself doing after you graduate from BG?
Living downtown Chicago preferably Lincoln Park working for the Bears or Cubs. I want three dogs.
If you could have any job in the world, what would be your dream job?
Hands down a professional dancer. I would want people to ask me what I do for a living so I could answer, "I'm a professional dancer what do you do?
What is one item that you couldn't live without?
My cell phone is like my right hand. If I don't have it I can't do anything.
