| What is your most memorable childhood experience? | There's not one, sole memorable experience, but I do have a lots of prominent memories of playing with my friends who lived in the same neighborhood as me. We spent a lot of time outside, riding our bikes to the pool, or playing games at the nearby park. There is a lot of childlike freedom in my memories of that time. |
| What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why? | I most closely identify with my mother because she has a propensity for wonder, an openness to appreciating the beauty in nature, art, and life in general. This is a quality that I am thankful to have learned from her. |
| What character traits do you admire in an individual? | I admire and appreciate people who live playfully with a good sense of humor and who are persistent enough to stay engaged with their passions, life, and other people. |
| What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you? | I don't have a specific memory of something funny happening directly to me, but I find a lot of humor from observing the world and the people around me. |
| If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why? | In the past, I traveled to Poland. Even though I've already been there, I would love to return, see more of Eastern Europe, and maybe even live there for some time. |
| When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them? | I would like to pass on a sense of appreciation for themselves, other people, and life. |
