What are you listening to these days?
I really am just into everything. I like a wide range. Sometimes you’re in that country mood, sometimes you want something maybe a little harder.
What have you been reading?
“Yes Please,” by Amy Poehler. I was actually going to go to the bookstore after work to pick it up. I am a HUGE fan of hers and have wanted to read the book since it came out!
What are you watching on TV?
I actually like “America’s Got Talent.” I think it’s super interesting to see what everybody can do.
What was the last movie you saw?
I actually went with my sisters to see “The Penguins of Madagascar.” They’re a little young, under the age of 12, so I take them to the movies.
One person living or dead you would like to meet and why?
There’s one person who I actually got close to meeting Kerri Walsh, she’s a volleyball player. I’ve been playing volleyball my whole life, so I really look up to her.
Describe your dream vacation.
Somewhere on a beach with a lot of sand, and maybe music’s going in the background. And, being able to watch a nice sunset go down over the ocean.
What is your favorite hobby?
Well, I play volleyball almost every night and every weekend. I’ve been playing since I was 12 years old. I just graduated from Saint Rose, where I played volleyball for four years and was captain my senior year.
Describe what your last meal would be.
Probably breakfast. I love having breakfast. Pancakes, waffles, tons of bacon. Maybe some eggs and toast with jam.
What is something most people don’t know about you?
I’m a Harry Potter nerd.
