- Claim to fame
- I was Miss Delaware USA for 2011 and competed at the national level at Miss USA.
- Hobbies
- Running, working out and traveling.

- I hate bitchy, conceited girls. Those are the girls I love to beat when I compete against them in beauty pageants.

- Castaway they say they are most like
- Danni Boatwright! I respect her because she proved that pageant girls can kick ass on Survivor and take home the million dollars. It will happen again!
- Why they wanted to play
