Whom do you most admire for their
inner and outer beauty? I admire Bella Hadid for her inner and outer beauty. She shows off her natural beauty and embraces creativity in the fashion industry. She also uses her platform to promote positive change in her community and bring attention to ongoing issues including racism, women’s rights, and victims of natural disaster. Tell us about your first kiss? My first kiss was in the playground of the Kennedy Space center. I always laugh about that. It was my 6th grade field trip to see the space shuttle. Steak, chicken, or seafood? Seafood! I’m a pescatarian and obsessed with sushi.
Tell us something about yourself that only your closest
friends know. I’m actually an introvert. I can turn on a social personality but when I’m truly comfortable I’m quiet and enjoy doing relaxing things at home like watching a movie and ordering Uber eats.
What three things would you need to survive on a
deserted island? A garden with a lot of food, a comfy bed and a speaker to play music. Can’t live without Spotify.
What do you find to be the most annoying habit people
demonstrate on the golf course? When people get aggressively angry. I understand golf is a hard game but when people are throwing clubs and cursing it ruins the vibe. Being on the golf course can be relaxing and beautiful!
Name the three most important things to you in this

I am an avid Pokémon player. I’m a licensed class 3 reptile breeder that specializes in tortoises! I’m working on getting my PGA certification to teach lessons and motivate girls to get on the golf course. I have 3 tattoos, my first tattoo I got was with my whole family and we all got our initials, this was all of our first tattoos. I love art and plan to incorporate artists’ works onto my bag and golf equipment as part of a show case for their work. Lastly, I want to become an advocate for mental health and become a resource for struggling individuals especially athletes.
