What is the most interesting or surprising thing about you, or that has happened to you?
I have a lot of "blonde moments," but I am actually a really smart person. Surprise, surprise!

Are you the oldest, youngest or a middle child and what does that mean to you?
To me, being an only child means being able to be closer to my family and also learning to be more independent. By being an only child, I have learned to become responsible for my actions and I have also been given many opportunities.

Name one person, family, friend, celebrity, who has had the most influence on your life.
Shelly Winings. My mother is my stronghold. She has always provided me with a shoulder to cry on or an ear to listen. I value my mom's opinion and making her proud means the world to me.
