What is the most interesting job you've ever had? I worked for Pepsi as part of their Mountain Dew Vertical Challenge. A team of us, mostly college-aged kids, would travel to different ski mountains around the north east on the weekends and hold a series of free casual ski and snowboard races. At the end of the day, we were in charge of handing out medals, prizes and raffles. The proceeds from the raffles went to New Hampshire's Make-A-Wish organization. Not only was it a fun and an exciting job working with great people but the benefits of helping out such an amazing organization like Make-A-Wish made it even better!
What are words of wisdom you live by? “A grudge is the heaviest thing you can carry.”
If you could have a super-power, what would it be? I want the ability like in one of the commercials where everything you touch turns to skittles... who wouldn't want that?
What is your favorite way to stay in shape? I love doing anything active, whether it's dancing, hiking, yoga and I especially love being outdoors.
Do you have any collections? This may seem weird, but I save cards. There's something sentimental to me about getting a card, and I have a hard time throwing them out!
What's your favorite way to spend a Saturday afternoon? Enjoy a fresh smoothie, go for a run with good music, read a good book outside, and a day on the boat with friends! It doesn't get any better.
What are your favorite and least favorite parts of Patriots Cheerleader practices? My favorite part about practice is being with the girls, you definitely form good friendships over the season. My least favorite part would probably be running/sprinting the ramps. (Although I have to admit you feel great afterwards!)
Tell us something fans would be surprised to know about you. I know American Sign Language!
When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? A teacher or a vet. At the time I thought grading papers would be fun and that vets got to play with puppies all day.
What is your idea of the perfect date? Something fun and laid back. I have always wanted to play in a paintball game. I think that would be a pretty cool date!
