| What is your most memorable childhood experience? | My most memorable childhood experience is going to watch my father play in the band of a local musical performance of The Music Man. When my family went to see the show, it was a beautiful, almost picturesque day. My sister and I spent our time watching the musical and playing on the playground. Nothing in particular happened that day, but I will always remember it. |
| What immediate family member do you closely identify with and why? | I most closely identify with my mother. She and I share many interests, including a love of music. She is a very special person in my life. |
| What character traits do you admire in an individual? | There are many traits I admire in an individual, such as honesty, loyalty, and the ability to have fun. But the ones I find most important are kindness and empathy. A truly good person will be kind and caring to anyone they meet initially, regardless of outward or inward appearance. |
| What is the funniest thing ever to happen to you? | I can't pick out a specific moment, but many times my friends and I make each other laugh so hard our stomachs hurt. We could be talking about anything or nothing at all. Sometimes it's our actions, other times it's our words. All I know is that those moments are the most hilarious I've had. |
| If time and money were not an issue, where would you travel and why? | If time and money were not an issue, I would travel to Japan. My friends and I have been interested in their culture for a while now. Being able to go there would allow me to further immerse myself in Japanese culture and really get a taste for what their lifestyle is like. |
| When and if you ever have children, what would you like to pass on to them? | If I ever had children, there are many things I would like to pass on to them. First among these would be kindness and empathy, like I mentioned earlier. In addition, I would also like to provide them with a loving and caring family and childhood, so they can grow up to be the best person they can be. |
