If you could live anywhere on earth, where would you live?
I would live in San Diego. The weather is perfect.

Which living person do you most admire?
I'm adjusting this question to "Which living people do I most admire?" The answer to this question is my parents. They've sacrificed so much for my brothers and I, and they always put their children first. They are wonderful examples of humanity.

What is your favorite season of the year, and what about that season makes it so?
My favorite season is the Fall. Football starts, the leaves change into beautiful colors, and it's great jeans and sweatshirt weather.

What do you most value in your friends?
Laughter

You go out for your favorite dinner - what is the restaurant, and what do you order?
My favorite restaurant is Mama Carolla's and I usually mix it up when it comes to the entree, because I really like most things there. However, I always order the Fried Ravioli for an appetizer.

If you could converse over coffee with a historical figure, who would you choose?
I think I would like to meet Albert Einstein. He might be able to teach me a thing or two about math, which is not my strong suit!

Where would you like to vacation that you have not been before?
I'd love to go to Greece.
