George Washington - I would say Thank You.

3. If you could eliminate one thing from your daily schedule, what would it be and why?

8. If you were granted three wishes, what would you ask for?
Always have my family near, success, longevity.

9. What's the best piece of advice you have ever received?
"Don't be a Cinderella." This line has stuck with me since I was about 8 or 9 years old. It was a lesson out of 'Going For It', which was the psychology book my gymnastics coaches used with me. This taught me that in the real world there wasn't going to be a prince that was going to "rescue" me. It taught me that if I wanted something bad enough, I had to set goals, work hard, and make my own opportunities!

Writing and maintaining focus.

The Mediterranean.

I don't usually eat late at night, but a piece of extra dark chocolate would probably be good.

13. What's your bad quality?
Sometimes I'm too much of a perfectionist; I just end up getting in my own way!

Tornadoes.

An LPGA Tour player!

16. If you had one word to describe yourself, what would it be?
Focused.

17. If I came to your home and looked inside the refrigerator, what would I find?
Well, probably not a whole bunch most people would be interested in! I'm milk protein allergic which means I can't eat anything with dairy in it. So you will always find Very Vanilla Silk Soy Milk, Dark Chocolate Silk Almond Milk, and water. I also love soy yogurt, Peppermint Stick Luna Bars, and mangos!

18. What movie do you watch again and again?
The Sound of Music; my parents used to hide it from me when I was little!
