| What is your most memorable childhood experience? | The most memorable childhood experience was generally playing outside with my friends in my neighborhood. Either going over to each other's houses to play with toys or riding our bikes around the neighborhood. Just being a kid and having fun in the sun, using my imagination to create other worlds with my various toys. I would play with friends or by myself for hours upon hours. |
| What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why? | My brother and my second oldest sister are the two I 'm closest to. My brother was my idol and he taught me so many things and inspired many of my thoughts and view of the world. My sister was like a second mother and she always would remember every holiday and birthday through my life with either a meaningful small gift or card. |
| What character traits do you admire in an individual? | Intelligence in any way. People's intelligence and loyalty to their knowledge or skill to be specifically better than others is always admirable. |
| What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you? | I think at this point the funniest thing that happen to me was on a birthday. My best friend and roommate at the time threw a southwestern-themed birthday/going-away party because I was moving. There was a Darth Vader piñata that he bought because it was funny, and because of his Spanish heritage. I broke it open and thought it would be funny to wear the cowl. I shoved the cowl part on my head not knowing there were staples inside. I ended up a bloody mess, but still continued on. |
| If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why? | I would travel all over Europe to see historic sites and experience different cultures. Then maybe to Mars, but I do not like the "no return" aspect of that. |
| When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them? | I would like to pass on my intelligence and quality to take on any challenge. |
