| What is your most memorable childhood experience? | I found a litter of kittens in my woods. I was looking for bugs and ended up finding five cute kittens. We ended up keeping two as pets and gave the other three away. |
| What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why? | I identify with my sister. She is someone I can relate to due to our childhood being a bit different from other kids. We both strive to be better people, investing in ourselves and our futures, and living the best life we can because life is a gift. |
| What character traits do you admire in an individual? | I admire the ability to try when a person is at a very low point in their life. I can relate to this and have been through a difficult time due to the sudden loss of my ex-girlfriend. I respect people who don't give up on themselves and still do the best they can even when times are difficult. |
| What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you? | When my sister and I were kids, we always played outside. I was always interested in bugs, especially caterpillars. I was observing some caterpillars on the ground and my sister stepped on one. When she stepped on the caterpillar, it squirted into my eye. Although it was gross, looking back at it we both laugh at this moment every time we talk about it. |
| If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why? | I love to travel and the next place I would like to travel to would be the Himalayan mountains. I love to explore the great outdoors and a way I do that is through hiking. The Himalayas look otherworldly, and I would love to see them one day! |
| When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them? | I would like to pass on knowledge I've learned over the past few years of my life. I believe knowledge is very powerful and would definitely write a few topics on important things to focus on during life. Another sentimental thing would be a cutting from my fig tree at home. This fig tree was brought over from Italy by my great-grandparents when they immigrated to the USA. The tree and cuttings from the original have been in our family from when they were in Italy, and I'd like to keep that tradition going. |
