Anisa Phillips

What is the craziest thing you have ever done?
I didn’t know what I was getting myself into as I signed up for a 3-week kayaking trip in Canada at my summer camp. During the next 177 miles of heat, lightning storms, spiders, snakes, and dehydrated food, I survived our Mother Earth’s true nature!

Being a leader.

Name one person, family, friend, celebrity, who has had the most influence on your life.
Mai Phillips. All my life I have been a "Daddy’s Girl," but recently I began to grow closer to my mom. Just before Thanksgiving she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Her attitude and strength are remarkable, and I hope I can be half of the mom and the woman that she is.

Graduated from Washington University in St. Louis and starting a career as either a fashion designer in New York or an interior designer in California.

What else do you want the judges to know about you?
