When I was little I always wanted to be the Pink Power Ranger.
An artist, band or group no one would believe I have on my iPod is Pentatonix.
If I could have dinner with any celebrity, it would be Brad Paisley.
Something people might not know about me is that I had to sit on a pillow when I would drive my pickup truck.
If I could get on a plane and go anywhere, it would be to someplace warm.
My favorite place to eat on campus is Old Man Rafferty's.
My favorite place to hangout on campus is the Livingston Recreation Center.
What I miss the most about my hometown is everyone knowing everyone.
If I weren't an athlete, I would be a gymnastics coach.
When at the mall, the first stores I go to are none. I avoid everything but the Nike outlet.
My favorite gymnastics memory is making my mill circle in competition.
I committed to Rutgers over other schools because I wanted to get away from home and experience a new type of scenery.
After graduation I hope to move back home and get a job as an elementary school teacher.
The most influential person in my life is my dad.
A pre-meet ritual of mine is to say a prayer.
What excites me the most about the upcoming season is the program's first season in the Big Ten Conference and having amazing teammates to share it with.
My goals for the 2015 season are to hit my routines every week, help the team improve every week and help the team become a top 20 program in the country.
