Favorite thing about being in a relationship: Having someone to share your life with—the ups and the downs, the good and the bad and all the silly inside jokes in between.
Most noticed part of your body: My eyes and my dimples

Ideal qualities in a potential mate: I like guys who are trustworthy, kind, driven, fun, outgoing and who have a zest for life.
Pet peeves: I can’t stand it when people don’t use turn signals, when they don’t follow through and when they check their cellphones at dinner.
Top hobbies: I love traveling, swimming, boating, scuba diving, waterskiing, kickboxing, reading and watching movies.

Professional accomplishments: I managed the creation and launch of a new product sold exclusively at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter in Universal Studios. J.K. Rowling, her team and Warner Brothers had to sign off on it. It was a two-year process! As student government president at Murray State, I also served on the university’s Board of Regents and initiated funding for an $8.9 million wellness center that opened in April 2005. I love returning to my alma mater and watching students enjoy this state-of-the-art facility.
Greatest life ambition: To love my family and friends fiercely and, God willing, look back on my life as a very old, dynamic lady who had many great adventures and who left the world a little better than I found it.
Secret obsession: Justin Timberlake
Unique quirk: I like to sleep with a fan on at night.
Favorite flavor at Dippin’ Dots: Birthday cake
