What is the craziest thing you have ever done?
I went swimming in a mountain lake that I knew had water snakes in it! I had been hiking all day and I was hot, tired, and dusty. I just wanted to quickly jump in and get refreshed. So, I looked around and didn't see any snakes. I decided to swim out to a big boulder in the middle of the lake to rest and relax in the sun. As soon as I put my hand up on the rock, two large snakes quickly slithered by my hand and jumped into the water. I was so freaked out! Needless to say, it took me a while to get my courage up to get back in that water and swim to shore.
If you could have lunch with any one (1) person, dead or alive, who would it be and why?
Al Gore. I would love to sit and have lunch with Al Gore because he singlehandedly has brought the crisis of global warming to our attention. Through his book and movie, An Inconvenient Truth, he has motivated the entire world to be better stewards of our earth. I admire his passion, dedication, and vision to make a difference for all of us. I was fortunate enough to hear him speak in my hometown about his new book,The Assault On Reason, and it would make for a very interesting lunch to meet with someone who is so inspirational and a natural leader.

What would be your "dream job" in life?
My dream job would be one that allows me to incorporate my talents of working with people, visual media, and music.
Name one personal accomplishment (IN ADDITION to being a State Titleholder) that makes you especially proud.
I am really proud that I made the Honor Roll at my school. I had so many more responsibilities this year and I wasn't sure that I would be able to juggle them all and keep up my GPA. I learned that by focusing on my goals and working really hard, I could accomplish things that I was worried about and doubted that I could do.
