List three things you can’t live without, and why.
1. My camera because I LOVE taking pictures! Since I was a baby, my entire life has been documented in photographs.

2. My cell phone because my family lives across the country and talking to them everyday makes me feel they are closer to me. Also, because I am addicted to texting and checking my e-mail!

3. Food!!! Because I LOVE eating, and I would die without it!

Who is your role model? Billie Jean King! She’s had the greatest influence in women within athletics and professional sports, and her perseverance enabled females to participate in sports at the same level as men- that is inspiring!
