Personal claim to fame: I was on the cover of Playboy February 2011 and met the hard working Hugh Hefner. Inspiration in life: My mother is my inspiration. She is a strong, independent woman who always taught me to reach for my goals in life. She raised my brother and me as a single mother and we never felt we were without anything we wanted. I can only hope to be half the mother she is. Hobbies: I like going to Broadway plays, riding More...quads, camping and going to the beach. Growing up in Northern New Jersey gave me the love of being outdoors. Pet peeves: Dishonest people, liars and people who think they are better than everyone else. 3 words to describe you: Outspoken, humorous and witty. SURVIVOR contestant you are most like: Jane. She stands up for herself and never lets her morals go. She is a hard worker and loves her dogs just like I love my pup, Diesel. Reason for being on SURVIVOR: It is my mom’s favorite show and we have been watching since I was 10 years old. She told me that if I ever got the opportunity to be on it we would jump at the chance! Why you think you’ll “survive” SURVIVOR: I feel that I am a strong independent woman and I know I will strive to prevail. Quitters never win and winners never quit. Why you think you will be the sole SURVIVOR: Playing sports all my life, I feel I am a competitor at heart. I am very athletic and am very likeable. I plan to use these qualities to get me to the end!
