What is the most interesting job you've ever had? I participated in a “Flash Mob”. Dancers and I learned choreography to a few popular songs and our job was to hang out a casino in a general area and whenever one of our songs came on over the intercom, we had to start dancing in the middle of the busy crowd. Everyone stopped and either watched or gave us funny looks. It was a lot of fun!
If you could have a super-power, what would it be? I would want to be able to read peoples' minds. I've always been pretty nosy.
What reality TV show would you like to be on? I would want to be on the show, “Coming Home”, where service men and women come home from deployment and surprise their families. My brother is overseas right now and I would give anything to see him.
What is the beauty product you can't live without? Hair spray, best thing ever invented.
If you could have witnessed one event in history, what would It have been? It is not necessarily a specific event, but I would love witness the time of the Native Americans. I am inspired by the way tribes lived because they chose to dance all the time. When they were happy, sad, in mourning, etc., they danced. It was inspirational.
What are your favorite and least favorite parts of Patriots Cheerleader practices? Both my favorite and least favorite parts of practice is running the ramps. Its kind of a bitter-sweet situation. They absolutely stink while I'm doing them, but I feel so good after wards.
What is the worst pick-up line you've ever heard? "Do you know how much a polar bear weighs?" "Enough to break the ice.." I couldn't help but laugh.
Tell us something fans would be surprised to know about you. I eat McDonald's every day.
When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? Surprisingly, I wanted to be a rock star when I grew up. I would wear my brothers' ripped jeans all the time, skateboard around my neighborhood, and blast my rock and roll music.
What is your idea of the perfect date? My perfect date would be leaving the boy at home and going out with my best friend.
