What do you consider your greatest achievement? Last April I trained for and ran my first marathon. It was an incredible experience and I am currently training to run the same race again this April.

If you competed in the Olympics, what sport would you participate in? This is a very difficult question for me because I love absolutely everything about the Olympics! I think I would want to compete in either a snowboarding or skiing event or possibly luge. There are just too many good choices.

How many siblings do you have? I have one sister who is 2 1/2 years younger.

My favorite color is…Purple.

What is your guilty pleasure? Ice cream. I could eat it every day.

What’s the biggest compliment you’ve ever received? A group of 10-year-old girls told me I looked like professional soccer player Alex Morgan. Although not true at all, it was a big confidence booster.

If you could go to one concert, whose would it be? Josh Groban. And I did!

Where is your ideal vacation spot? I don’t know if you would call it an ideal vacation spot, but I would love to go on an African safari.
