5. What are you really good at?
Sports. I also think I am good with people. I enjoy talking to people and just being kind to them.

6. What is a talent you wish you had?
I wish I had a nice singing voice.

7. Tell me your background in sports and/or athletics.
I grew up with 5 brothers, 0 sisters so I love sports! I played basketball and soccer in high school. I loved basketball and my life pretty much revolved around it. We were the 4A state champs my junior year! I still play basketball once a year in a league. Other than that I am a huge cyclist.(think Lance Armstrong) It is a big part of my life. I also love triathlons, running, swimming, and yoga. I love being active.

8. Tell me your background in visual arts, dance & drama.
I took dance lessons when I was 4 and eventually started crying whenever I had to go, I obviously quit. ha I actually love dance now and would of loved to have danced in high school if I wouldn't have played sports. I wish I had visual arts talent, but it's not there. Drama is also non-existent.

9. What is your musical background? (Lessons? Singing? Instrument? Read music? Enjoy listening to music? What kinds?)
I absolutely love music. I took piano lessons for 5 years when I was younger and then I also took them 3 semesters at UVU-the best lessons I ever had. If it wasn't for time and money I would still take them. I love the piano and I like to perform. I also am a very good sight-reader. I love to listen to music. My absolute favorite bands to listen to are Coldplay and Keane. But I am one of those people who like all kinds of music, but especially hip hop.

10. What would you be doing this summer, if you were not going to be an intern?
I would be working, oh wait I'm already doing that. ha I would just be working full time instead of part time. And of course I would have been able to go on a nice vacation with the fam.

11. What would you like me to know about you that I haven't asked?
I've been married for 3 years and am very close to my family. Even though life is hard, I am happy.

  1. I agree... you ARE good with people, and helping them feel like they belong. I enjoyed reading your responses, and sensing your positive outlook! Okay, now... will you tell me about Tommy Boy? I'm not familiar with it... and I promise that I won't judge! ( -; 4 points
