1. Which celebrity do you think you look like?
Having lost my young cousin to brain cancer, I have dedicated my life to helping children in medical crisis. My decade of service as a spokesperson, volunteer and fundraiser have honed my communication and speaking skills, teaching me humility and compassion, the qualities I feel best represent the International system.
2. Which do your prefer? Talking on the phone or texting?
When I tell people that I’ve trained and coached a competitive championship robotics team for the past five years, they are very surprised! In fact, my team of 8th graders is headed to the World Robotics Championship, hoping to bring the 2010 title home to the United States!
3. What’s something you only do when you get bored?
My grandmother always told me that being happy is the key to a long life and that laughter is the best medicine! Laughter fills my home resulting in a happy, healthy me. Of course, I eat right and exercise too, but that’s just part of my own personal healthy equation.
4. Are you overly loyal to any clothing brands?
Family values are as individual as families themselves. For my family, we define our values by high morals, hard work, determination to succeed, compassion for others and commitment to community service. These strong values are the legacy my husband and I give to our children and their future.
