What is your most memorable childhood experience?My most memorable childhood experience was when I was 10 yrs old. I competed in the junior olympics and took 2nd place (All-American) in the shot put.
What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why?My oldest sister is my best friend. We are close in age so I always go to her for advice. My parents got divorced when we were kids and she and I were always there for each other. I call or text her just about everyday.
What character traits do you admire in an individual?The character trait that I admire the most is someone who is reliable. If you show that you are reliable you also have a couple built in traits that come along with that as well; punctual, honest, loyal, and trusting to name a few. Now I’m not saying you have all of those but that’s how I see someone who is reliable. I can always count on them to be there or keep their word, and if they say that they will be somewhere or do something then it will get done.
What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you?When I was a kid, I was about 15 years old. I want crabbing with my uncle and my cousins. He was showing me the ropes on how to hook the pot and hoist it up into the boat. After a couple attempts I finally got the hang of it and started to gain a little confidence. As all this was happening the deck of the boat was getting wet and as I went to grab the next pot. My foot slipped out from under me, my chest hit the side of the boat and I ended up in the water.
If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why?I have always wanted to travel to Bora Bora. I love the water and being on an island in a little hut on the water. Sounds like it doesn’t get any better than that.
When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them?I’m not really sure if you can pass this on but I hope that my children are passionate in what ever interest them. I believe if they are passionate then they will do what it takes, work hard and invest their time. This passion will help them develop their skill and build character.
