Hometown: Spokane, WA

Best part about living in Spokane: Being around so many different kinds of people!
Favorite thing to do in Spokane: Hang out in Riverfront Park, especially in the summertime when all the rides are open and there is usually something going on every weekend.
Favorite restaurant: I always have a good time at Red Robin!

What song do you have to sing along to when it comes on? I would definitely bust out anything Spice Girls, Hanson, or Alanis Morissette.
Favorite possession: My kitty Toulouse, I wish I could take him everywhere with me!
Favorite book: I've read The Princess Diaries about 5 times..no matter how old I get, I still love it!
Favorite quote: "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent." -Eleanor Roosevelt
Favorite superhero: Wonder Woman, she's so independent and strong! I would definitely take advantage of that Lasso Of Truth too!

Who has been your greatest inspiration? My Mother...she always inspires me to reach for the stars.
What are three things you still want to accomplish? I want to get my Zoology Degree, I hope to work at a tiger sanctuary and save/raise a tiger, and I'm also excited for the right time to start a family.
What is the best advice you've ever been given? "Just dance, don't let anything hold you back and those that care about you will dance your dance along with you."

Biggest pet peeve: I have to have my pop can open all the way, and I will open other people's if it is only open half way. Also, I am always tempted to put people's tags back in their shirts, even if I don't know them!
Most embarrassing moment: I was in 4th grade and at the movies with my brother and a friend. While playing around outside I literally ran right into a pole right outside the lobby window. I blacked out for a couple seconds and had a black eye for two weeks! It wasn't fun to explain over and over.

If you could have one do-over in life, what would it be? I wish I would have never stopped playing other sports like volleyball and basketball, I really enjoyed them and was actually kind of good! It's never too late though.
Who would you run the Amazing Race with? Jacob from Twilight; who wouldn't want to run the race with a really fast (and good looking) WOLF!? Besides, if I ran it with Edward, I'd have to be worried wanting to drink my blood all the time!
When you were 15, who did you have a crush on? Adam Brody from The OC.

Favorite thing about summer: I love being really warm all the time and the sunshine actually makes me happy no matter what!
I wish I knew how to sing like Beyonce' or Kelly Clarkson.
