What would be the scariest monster you could imagine? I have always been terrified of snakes, so any kind of monster snake would be scary to me.

What three items would you take with you on a deserted island? I would bring some type of water bottle, a tent, and a boat.

What's the most unusual thing you've ever eaten? I honestly think the most unusual thing I have ever eaten is peanut butter chicken. I don’t think those two should be a combination.

What is your favorite home cooked meal? I love my moms hash brown casserole.

What are some small things that make your day better? When someone compliments me or I get a random text from my fiancé saying how much he loves me.

What’s something you’ve been meaning to try but just haven’t gotten around to it? I have been meaning to go zip lining but I have not gotten the chance to go yet.

What’s the best way a person can spend their time? They can spend time with people they love and spend time giving to people instead of taking.

What do you want to be when you “grow up”? I have always wanted to be a professional singer, but that might be too much of a stretch, so I just want to work with youth in some sort of nonprofit setting.

What is the first song that pops up on your favorite Pandora or Spotify station? My favorite song is called Trenches and Charms.

What’s the best single day on the calendar? Right now, it’s the day I’m getting married!

Which celebrity are you constantly mistaken for? I can’t remember being mistaken for a celebrity.

If a genie gave you three wishes, what would they be? I would wish to not stress about anything, to have constant peace and joy, and for my husband and family to be constantly blessed.

What are you looking forward to in this year's Spectrum Project? I am looking forward to being a drama director and helping to teach these amazing kiddos!
