| What is your most memorable childhood experience? | I remember waking up early on Christmas morning, tiptoeing down the stairs, and seeing all the presents illuminated by the lights of the tree. |
| What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why? | I identify most closely my sister. We tend to have the same realistic perspective on things, are straightforward and honest, and have shared experiences. |
| What character traits do you admire in an individual? | I admire honesty, integrity, determination, awareness and self-control. |
| What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you? | I was "pantsed" by a classmate during a school assembly. I didn't think it was funny then, but find it quite funny now. |
| If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why? | I would travel to Nepal, because it's away from the distractions of modern day society and the culture tends to value the core elements of humanity. |
| When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them? | I hope to leave my children a realistic lens through which to view the world, a sense of self-confidence, the knowledge that they are loved, and the ability to ignore fear when it suits them. |
