Animals/pets
My boyfriend's dog, which I adopted. She's a little French Bulldog

What is your biggest fashion disaster?
Probably back in my awkward days of third through fifth grade when I used to wear my Walnut Creek Aquanuts sweats to school everyday.

What is your favorite item of clothing?
Right now, it's my brand new white wide leg trousers or my golf BCBG shoes.

Favorite sports movie
"The Replacements" has always been a favorite of mine.

You've just been given $10,000. How do you spend it?
First, I would go big time shopping. Next, I would probably get all of my closest friends together, fly first class to Vegas and roll VIP the entire weekend. Then, I'd probably donate some to local charities and invest the rest.

What was your first car?
1998 Toyota Corolla, and it's still going strong. I'm buying myself a new car after the Olympics.

Outside synchronized swimming, what other
athletic feat would you like to try?
I would like to try to run a marathon someday, and also try a triathlon. But, I'm not really skilled on a bike, so that would be interesting.

If you could live anywhere in the world, it would be...
Sydney, Australia

What do you enjoy doing most outside the pool?
Just hanging out and being a normal person. I love going out to dinner/movies with my friends on a weekend, or just staying home and catching up on some sleep.

Number one thing synchro has taught you
Loyalty and trust

Who do you look up to the most in the synchro world?
My coach, Tammy McGregor
